Whenever I visited Thailand, I would visit places where I could see beautiful local flowers. On one occasion, I bought a bouquet of gorgeous purple and white flowers that grow around long stems. They are featured in an oil painting, which my old artist friend, Choo Keng Kwang, encouraged me to do, using his oil painting materials and a spare canvas.
Please also enjoy a realistic and meticulous painting of two goldfish by an artist from Thailand.
