| D Potrait is a gallery beside
Apple cafe restaurant A
small scale art gallery but big in Sabah standard. .The gallery
design is very special.
Very quiet inside, no one inside,
Attracted by the arts and displays, Xing wanted to go in but could
not open the door. He tried a few times only to realized the door is
locked. So we view the art works from outside through the
glass panel.
The abstract art are attractive. We
stand outside a long time to observe. This art gallery belongs to a
foreigner artist, he painted all the painting. This artist,
according to what I read, he did not received formal training in
art. He just like to draw beginning from an early age.
He learns through admire
other people's work His paintings are abstract painting and one has
to try to understand what his painting meant or what the arts trying
to convey. In art one do not draw for others, but to draw for your
own self. The artist know not many people could understand his
paintings but he still continue to draw him, never stopped, because
he likes to draw, because he is a draw himself.
Other then his own works in the
gallery are also great works of other artists. Those Artists display
their works here for display as well as for sell.
There is an increasing of artistic
atmosphere in Kota Kinabalu City. An atmosphere that Tawau Town may
need another 50 years to pick up. This is a good sign.
