PROFILE

Tan Choo Kai 陈子凯

Singapore

Tan Choo Kai

Tan Choo Kai is a Singaporean artist who is a teacher by training and profession. He always seeks to capture the moments through his artwork as a tribute of love, his romance with and great admiration for Mother Nature. 

 

Tan's defining style is founded on the use of bold strokes, vibrant and yet harmonious colours that bring to life beautiful landscapes, in unique semi-abstract form. His artistic pursuit for artistic expression spans more than half a century. He has thoroughly enjoyed the adventure, the experiments, the discovery process and the eureka moments. 

陈子凯是新加坡画家,也是受过专业训练的老师。他希望通过艺术作品表达对大自然的热爱之情,抒发对大自然的感恩之情。

 

他采用粗旷的笔触,鲜明但和谐的色彩,呈现出半抽象形式的美丽风景作品。他对艺术的追求跨越了半个多世纪,总是不停探索和尝试。
