My zodiac sign is rat and i think they are cue. However a lot of people don't think much of them. So I just created this cute little rat with a daisy in its hands. Painted with Amsterdam and Expert acrylics from Royal Talens on stretched canvas 30 x 30 cm.

My first love while living in Borneo and always will be the underwater world. So I am working on making some shells from paper and leave the “real” once on the bottom of the ocean where they belong. This shell is approximate 18 cm high, 22 cm wide and 28 cm long. Made from paper and painted with Amsterdam, Expert acrylics and varnish from Royal Talens.

This sculpture is made from old news papers and card board. It's inspired by all the underwater creators I have seen during my diving trips here in Sabah. The pattern is loosely inspired on a Mandarin fish. But as this is a much bigger fish (it is approximate 35 cm high and 60 cm long) I thought i would call in Orange; which is Jingga in the Malaysian language. Painted and varnished with Amsterdam / Expert acrylics and varnish from Royal Talens

Another Sabah memory: a warrior performing a dance using the bamboo sticks This painting on 90 x 60 cm stretched canvas. Painted with Amsterdam / Expert acrylics and varnish from Royal Talens.

This torso is standing 55 cm tall. The pattern is inspired on the traditional ladies dress in Sabah. It took me a long time to complete this sculpture made from paper and recycling different pieces: some plastic (for bas structure), stones (for weight and balance) and some 50 ringgit cent coins for the top belt; called a himpogot (coin belt) and the bottom one is painted and represents a tangkong (a very heavy brass ring belt) which are a sign of the wearer's wealth.

Just created another cat. How a love cats (and tigers, and anything wild or domestic in this category). Her tail is pointing up almost 80 cm into the sky while the pattern is partly inspired on an Art-Deco dress I saw on display in a museum. Painted and varnished with Amsterdam acrylics from Royal Talens.

During the lockdown or MCO (Movement Control Order) in Malaysia I finally found time to go through the many photos taken during our time in Malaysia and especially Borneo.

Painted with Amsterdam and Expert acrylics from Royal Talens and varnished with Liquitex on stretched canvas, size 60 x 90 cm.
