Interests and Personality
| Biography | Poh Lai is a Singaporean artist who has been practising for the past decade, and has participated in many art exhibitions, including the prestigious President’s Charity Art Exhibition in 1997. He won several prizes and awards in art competitions over the years in Singapore and Malaysia. In 2004, he gained a direct entry to second year of BA (Hons) Fine Arts programme at Falmouth College of Arts in UK, and graduated in July 2006.
His direct experience with different cultures has broadened his horizons and perspectives. Not only Paris, but Cornwall, has also been a source of inspiration to his painting development.
In artistic development, he has moved from one subject to another, either through a conscious decision or due to the sudden dawning of insight. He is a very versatile artist who has also developed his own styles on street scene series and figurative works. For more details, please check out his website on www.limpohlai.com |

Paris did you well ;-)
Add even more! I am sure you've got a lot to show off...;-)
I added work of myself as well. I like it when I see the growth in work over years...or changes...or guts.

All your paintings are beautifully done. The colors you choose in each painting are very peaceful and balanced. "Rue Traversiere" is my favorite in your collection. I can tell your travels thru Europe made a great impression on your spirit from they way you paint the landscapes. Take care and keep painting more.
