Good Morning Terengganu portrays the serenity and simplicity of the Malaysian coastal life in Terengganu. Here, we see Fee Ming skillfully captures the warm coastal sunlight caressing the pillows, bolster and sarong while exploring details and texture of the textiles. Fee Ming cleverly creates a dialog among them, a kind of conference if you wish. This is a truly special piece from Fee Ming’s early window series.
A self-taught artist born in the town of Dungun in Terengganu, Malaysia in 1959, Chang has made spectacular progress over the years and now is among the finest Asia’s watercolour virtuosos. His works have been exhibited and collected throughout Asia, Europe, and the USA. He received the international award Rockport Publisher’s Award of Distinction USA. One of his works was selected by Winsor & Newton for the United Nation’s Millennium Art Exhibition London, Stockholm, and New York.
