As an ambidextrous caricaturist, I do caricature drawing since 1990 in Singapore. Einstien from Norway is the pioneer caricaturist with certain years before me, then follow by Eric Ng, Saik, Poon Ee Way whose were my senior. Chong Jit Leong, which known having shop at Yishun area doing full time portrait and caricature around that time as well if not wrong. Not much people doing caricature for events fringe art during that period. Nowadays, more than 22 active caricaturists in the industry.

One of Singapore’ Famous Portraiture artist’s Exhibition
Went to one of Singapore’s famous portraiture artist, Mr Siew Hock Meng’s solo exhibition at Hills Street, MICA building, after red the ads in newpaper.His painting was great and I found so many things can be learn from him especially people who draw caricature often like me, many people who like drawing and painting portraiture as well.I found one of his oil painting which something like the living style in Bali Indonesia, was priced at S$150,000, most of the rest of the smaller size of his oil painting mostly priced at $15,000.He is a great portrait master everyone was respected to; thought someday I should officially learn from him about how to draw portrait, haahaa!
