‘Battambang – My Home Town’, About the Drawings

To draw with pencil is my favourite way to produce art because it is simple, interesting and beautiful to look at.

During my time creating these images I changed my methods from fast to slow because it helped make me feel free. All the pictures that I draw are Cambodian scenes. I want to get the viewer to get a free feeling from my drawings.

About the Paintings

For this series of paintings I want to show things about life and all things natural. All the negative and positive things that people do, I tried to make clear in my paintings. Some people are sleeping and so forget the past, I would like to help them remember, to get up, keep working and carry on with the future.
