I have always painted since I can remember being in kindergarten. When I was growing up and living in Malaysia, I took private art lessons from Anthony Sum, who is a chinese calligrapher and artist who has exhibited all over the world and now lives in Australia.

When I came to study in England, I took up Art and Design as a GSCE and excelled in the practical lessons and loved being taught by painters like Andrew Burkitt, printers like Geoff Cropper and sculptors like Simon Todd
