"Devotee at Thaipusam, Batu Caves" Painting

Annies Lee, a self-taught realism artist from Malaysia, I grown up with the influence of neighbour who were artist and fashion designer, Like others in the country, chose to study Graphic design but not fine art for the purpose of "surviving" and put down the drawing pencil for more than 15 years. I picked up the pencil again during 2015 for release the tension from the restaurant business. My first painting was bought by a French customer and another painting also sold to an American lady during the restaurant business era. Now i'm a full time artist and do a lot of portrait drawings. Acrylic on canvas was the first medium i used and explored on pastel and colour pencil too. Other than painting, I like travel and photography too and they always inspired me in my artwork.
