Capturing local daily scenes
By CHOONG MEK ZHIN

THE watercolour paintings now on display at the Jiiva Fine Art gallery will bring a sense of nostalgia to those who view them. For, they depict familiar local daily scenes and scenery that many people may not pay particular attention to, but which, fortunately, have caught the eye of the artists and were transformed into works of art.

The paintings are the works of six local artists from the Malaysian Watercolour Organisation (MWO).

揟he most interesting part about the paintings is that they were all painted on the spot.

Rural feel: A traditional home, painted by Chua.

揑t was quite a challenge to us as we had to bear with disturbances from passers-by and maybe even wait for the weather to be perfect,

Betul.....watercolor bukannya imaginative drawing. Hasil watercolor yang baik ialah pelukisnya melukis terus apa yang mereka lihat dihadapan mereka. Jika mereka tidak sempat untuk melukisnya maka sebab itulah perlu merakamnya dengan membuat banyak sketches not photography. Melukis dengan meniru dari gambar foto maka ia tidak mempunyai nilai dan sesuai untuk art student saja yang belum ada kemahiran sendiri.
What the artist see is what the artist draw
