“
The fluidity of the medium amazes
me. It allows one to explore and
create
stunning
compositions
to allow the viewer to experience
different moods. Mastering the
colour map and space changed
my perception of working with
watercolours. I enjoy the medium
and I can also pass on the learning
to my colleagues and students.”

CAPS! Paint with Colours
With Ng Woon Lam
“
The idea of Visual Literacy -- Why
artists use colours the way they
do. I look at artworks differently
now!”
The nine of us quickly came to
the realisation that the wide
kaleidoscope of colours is really
daunting yet exciting at the same
time. Under the guidance of Mr Ng,
we were challenged to stretch the
possibilities of how colours can be
used.”

r Ng’s workshop helped us to appreciate
the attributes of colours. Through his
painting demonstrations and explanation we
had a better understanding of the foundation
of colour theory and the application of colour
space in the artmaking process. Now we feel
more competent and confident in making more
polished artistic expressions after the workshop.

Set your own pace while painting.
Explore the possibilities of each
given task. You will get there. You
get there and then, conquer the
next task.”
