Dreamland in blue

My own dreamland

It has no concrete image

But has been composed of

All my encounters, experiences, appreciations and trials

Put together.

Smoke and haze raised across a vast farmed land during a controlled burn in agricultural land, during the evening, as twilight fall, the afterglow reflection on the cloud and thick smokes make the ember appear violet.

Nature has always been his subject and source of inspiration, other than venturing into the wild nature, he also surround himself in natural environment by cultivating nature in his living, to draw inspiration from his living environment.

A cloudy day in Malacca river’s shore, fishing boats are shore bound fearing a storm brewing.

Golden yellow flowers fill the eyes brings the tidings of spring.

A rainy scene of Melaka river, some of the splashes on the painting is raindrops, painting under open sky with nature light is one of Tham’s signature art approaches, a surprise drizzle caught artist by surprise, an welcome surprise. “Accident doesn’t create good art, but sometimes best art is created by accident.”

A fascinating tree artist planted in his backyard, a tree which branches twist, turn and flowing, like dancing to music unheard by human ears, the Flame of the Forest tree always been one of his favorite subject.

A unique scene in Melaka river, the houses along the river has no back lane, instead they have “back river” there is no road access to the backdoor of houses here, they can only access them by river, carriage boats is hired to deliver goods from backdoor.
