Flower Series #1 - Wild Ginger Still very into painting what i see here in Sabah (Borneo, East Malaysia). We will be leaving this place in approximate one year and I feel i will not have enough time to paint all the beauty out here. This is a wild ginger flower which you can see here whenever you step into a park, jungle or other green surroundings. This one is painted with acrylic Amsterdam, Expert and varnish from Royal Talens on ply wood, measuring 66 cm x 76 cm (including the white frame).

After an enjoyable weekend at Usukan Island Dolphin Bay Resort, I could not resist to paint that beautiful bay. Painted on acrylics paper (50 x 70 cm) with Amsterdam and Expert acrylics from Royal Talens and Liquitex varnish.

Trying out modelling paste which i brought back from my last trip to the Netherlands. Really liked the way it came out and definitely more artwork with this medium can be expected soon. Painted with modelling paste, Amsterdam & Expert acrylics and varnish from Royal Talens.

Always loved turtles but never found the time to create on canvas or make a sculpture. But finally I made this one. My last (or maybe second last?) I wil be making in Sabah. This painting is on 90 x 60 cm stretched canvas. Painted with Amsterdam / Expert acrylics and varnish 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. Love the beautiful flowers like the 'Heliconia'. This painting is inspired by the Heliconia Chartacea which is also been called 'Pink Lady'. Painted with Amsterdam and Expert acrylics from Royal Talens and varnished with Liquitex on stretched canvas, size 60 x 90 cm.

Last year, in the memories series, i have painted the paradise flowers here in Borneo and loved painting them. So I wanted to do them again in a different composition and on a different medium. Painted with Amsterdam and Expert acrylics from Royal Talens and varnished with Liquitex on stretched canvas 90 x 70 cm.

During the lockdown I finally found time to go through old photos taken during our time in Malaysia and especially Borneo. Love its beautiful flora and fauna. We spotted pitcher plants many times far away from Kota Kinabalu till a friend pointed them out to me during one of our walks in Bukit Padang. When hiking on the trails you can see them growing there and isn’t it great people just look and pass by without taking them. Mixed media on canvas 100 cm x 100 cm, using acrylic paint and inks from Royal Talens and Liquitex varnish.

This painting is inspired by a picture of a fish mentioned in a cm book with all kind of reef fish. The name of the fish is double ear goatfish. Painted with acrylics and varnished (brand: Amsterdam by Royal Talens) on canvas 30 cm x 40 cm.

During the lockdown I finally found time to go through old photos taken during our time in Malaysia and especially Borneo. Love its beautiful flora and fauna. We made many road trips and always would make a stop at Nabalu where you can see some orchids and can ga e a great view on the mountain. There are so many orchids here in Sabah (Borneo, East Malaysia) and they come in so many different shapes and sizes. This is my interpretation made with acrylics on 90 x 70 cm stretched canvas. Painted with a Amsterdam and Expert acrylics from Royal Talens and with liquitex varnish.
