About the artwork

This is an art piece is one of Lim Tze Peng’s earlier works when he was still exploring and experimenting. He did quite a few observational paintings applying both the Chinese and Western method – he uses Chinese brushes and the Western observational approach when painting. In this painting, he uses a variety of colours which is unlike his usual distinctive monochrome style. Lim used purple against the yellow backing creating a complementary contrasting composition. A mixture of yellow, orange, blue fused together creates a unique texture giving the art piece character.
