Splattering Insects on the Car Windscreen Painting

Alvin Koay is a self-taught artist and is best known for his intuitive painting and bold colors. Resonating with the abstract expressionism movement of post world war II, he is influenced by the early works of Willem de Kooning, Basquiat, Picasso, and other great painters of that era. All of his works are based on impulses, spontaneity, and improvisation. He constantly finds "accidental aesthetics" as he attacks the canvas with vigorous colors, lines, and textures. He paints his state of mind and emotions, with motives from mother nature, animals, and the worldly good. Alvin uses primarily acrylic on canvas as his preferred medium.
