    Petronas Gallery Exhibition Launching

    Alhamdulillah, an exhibition added to my portfolio. This is my 3rd Group Exhibition, the first being the Magic Mirror Exhibition organised by SCBWI Malaysia and second one The Cat Art Festival organised by ArtMalaysia.

    This ongoing exhibition entitled Words+Pictures=Book, Contemporary Malaysian Picture Book Illustration is organised by Petronas Gallery. It offers the Malaysian public an insight into the world of children’s picture book illustration through a fascinating exploration which takes viewers into a dynamic, dreamlike and engaging territory, with 10 uniquely Malaysian tales told in different styles. While promising a visual treat for viewers of all levels, the exhibition also serves to elevate the status of Malaysian picture book illustration to a serious art form and inspire new generation illustrators, in recognition of its role in a burgeoning Malaysian art landscape.

    I am so lucky to have Pak Yusof Gajah’s recommendation for this exhibition. I submitted my work through him and lucky again to be chosen to be with other great nine Malaysian illustrators namely Pak Yusof Gajah himself, Azalan Hussein, Shukri Edrus, Jainal Amambing, Awang Fadillah Ali Hussein, Faizal Abdul Jalil, Khairul Azmir Shoib, Nur Azmi Mokhtar and Chong Chin Yew.

    I would like to take this opportunity to thank Pak Yusof Gajah, Linda T. Lingard not leaving behind my husband and son for their endless supports.

    Also big thanks to all of you who takes the time to read my blog and gives me moral support.
