OLAH Watercolour Exhibition

10 April 2016

While walking to the car park on our way back from the main building of the National Visual Arts Gallery, we saw some people going inside a rather new-looking building. Out of curiosity, we went to check it out. We saw that there was a watercolour exhibition there by a group called OLAH. OLAH is a group of watercolour artists in Malaysia. We also watched some of the artists painting there.

Visit to National Visual Arts Gallery

10 April 2016

We visited the National Visual Arts Gallery situated off Jalan Tun Razak. On display were some watercolour paintings of Sir Frank Swettenham and George Giles from the book "Watercolours & Sketches of Malaya, 1880 - 1894". It was rather interesting to read the descriptions along with the sketches.

A nice drawing near the entrance

There were also sculptures on exhibition

When was the last time you saw this type of tv?

"The Story Behind The Story" Art Exhibition

8 November 2015

We stumbled upon this art exhibition by chance after leaving the KLCA art exhibition on the second floor of the Oriental Art & Cultural Association. Upon coming out of the lift, we saw this poster. Looking at the poster, we didn't know that it was an art exhibition, but based on the drawings, we suspected that it could be an art exhibition. So, we walked upstairs to the first floor to check it out.

Lo and behold, it was an art exhibition! This was the last day of the exhibition. At that point of time, we didn't know that they were drawn by autistic artists, age 17 - 31 years old. Only when I went home and checked out their facebook site that I realised that it was drawn by autistic artists. Some artworks were quite fascinating.  

The ones below actually comprised of many drawings of tiny ants. Emerson thought that the artist actually squashed real ants and stuck them to the paper, and he got disgusted thinking about it. I had to convince him that it wasn't real ants. They looked quite real. LOL!

Visit to KLCA Alumni Art exhibition

We visit the KLCA Alumni Art Exhibition at Oriental Arts and Cultural Association in Old Klang Road. The boys were inspired and motivated after looking at the beautiful paintings and how much these artwork could fetch.

These are pottery works done by a friend.
