  5. Good Neighbors • Symbiotic relationship between man and his environment has been the key factor to man’s continuous existence on earth. This painting emphasizes the relationship between the mighty but peaceful Elephant and the brave but tinny bird. Furthermore, it portrays the need for man to learn from the wild-life and reach out to one another with peace rather than war. Medium: Acrylic Size: 26”/34” Prize: $1000

  6. The ‘Tree’ Jolly friends • Life is a journey, and most of us have memories of childhood that are precious in our lives. Memories of friends we shared similar background, intimate secrets with in times of joy and sorrow. Friends that were there for us when it mattered most. Medium: Acrylic Size: 24”/32” Prize: $250

  7. Flight • The Eagle is the king of flight in the sky. With its sharp eyes, it can fish out its prey from a distance; with its powerful claws and beak it can tear its victim into pieces; with its strong wings it can fly higher than the highest mountain. Medium: Acrylic Size: 16”/24” Prize: $300

  8. Mother & Child • The love of a mother for her child is the greatest bond in the history of mankind. Come rain or shine, a mother has always been faithful and will never give up on her child. Medium: Gouache Size: 7”/11” Prize: $100

  9. The Potters House • We are all like clay from a similar source in the mighty hands of the creator. He defines who we are, what we are and if we are good enough for his glory.

  11. Journey to the West • Life is all about a journey to the unknown. Immigration form Europe, Asia and Africa is the bed rock of the success in the west. As an immigrant, every journey is full of risks, leaving the trust and comfort of loved ones behind and embarking on a journey to the unknown with little treasures, spiritual convictions, virtues and goodwill. Medium: Acrylic Size: 16”/24” Prize: $200

  14. Pollution • Pollution is all about the abuse of man’s greatest asset, “Land and its Natural Resources”. • From oil exploration, mining of gold, coal and other mineral resources, to the release of carbon monoxide into the air and dangerous chemicals into the water, leading to global warming Medium: Acrylic Size: 7”/11” Prize: $100

  15. Dancer • Music is the food of love, food to the soul of every man regardless of sex, race or nationality. Medium: Acrylic Size: 7”/11” Prize: $100

  16. Quest for Knowledge • “Knowledge is Power” • Education is the greatest legacy that a child can inherit from any society.

Medium: Ink & Pen Drawing Size: 16”/24” Prize: Not for Sale

  17. Ant Hill • Ant Hill is all about collaboration. The ant is a perfect example of what can be achieved when we co-operate and merge our various resources (might, power and wisdom) together, we can move any mountain. Medium: Acrylic Size: 16”/24” Prize: $150

  18. Whispering Palms • The palm tree is the mother of all trees. The entire product is very useful to man. Starting from the branches to the fruit and the trunk. In the midst of terrible storms, it has stood the test of time. Medium: Acrylic Size: 26”/36” Prize: $400

  19. Dignity Of Labor • It is not wealth one asks for, but just enough to preserve one’s dignity, to work unhampered, to be generous, frank and independent. Somerset Maugham Medium: Acrylic Size: 26”/36” Prize: $300
