The Suicide Ward

The Suicide Ward is a tribute to our frontline workers for their fathomless dedication in fighting the pandemic, especially during the early stages when there were not enough PPEs available. Besides the vaccine, their courage, long hours, and sacrifices are significant reasons for hope in coming out of this pandemic. We owe a huge debt to these people in our society who work tirelessly to help us, despite the dangers to their own lives and their family’s health and wellbeing.

I paint in whatever medium (e.g., watercolor on paper and oil on canvas) and style (modern, surreal, impressionism, and realism) that suits my mood at a particular time. Many of my paintings are theme-based or tell a story.

I sell my paintings through charitable auctions and private showings, the proceeds of which go to charity.
