Original artwork description:

acrylic colour on handmade thai mulberry paper, 10.5 x 13.3, 24.5 x 34.5 cm.
One of Singapore’s classic landmarks. I’ve done other variations on this theme. It’s an ever popular icon of the city state. Here I have painted on handmade paper for the textural parchment effect, the style more impressionist and not illustration.
The paper used here is a traditional paper handmade in Thailand. It’s a thick parchment like paper, strong yet pliable. I have the paper made to this size to get the deckled edges which adds to the textural effect.
The close up picture is to be able to get a feel for the texture and brush strokes of the painting. Then there’s the work in progress and that’s me with the painting for perspective.
Please note that you can purchase in one order up to 3 paintings of this same size or smaller to be included in the same 1 shipping fee.
