THANK YOU FOR VISITING MY SITE!
BIO:
Born and brought up in a small village deep in the rainforest of Borneo-Kampung Tapang Lebat ,and a product of 1958..I am now living in Siburan,kuching Sarawak.and ready to share some exiting paintings, used to be acrylics on canvas.
I admire the classical and modern artists and indeed anyone that feels that their art needs to be created. Whether my art is seen by many or few, the value of my work is the sense of achievement that I have, conveying my thought feelings to assemble a powerful vibrant outcome.Giving you a little bit of smile is good enough...
With a very strong influence of the jungle lives during my childhood days,I permanently stored my memories with the wonderful world of the rainforest.
Orang Utan is the character to my satire paintings. Music and golf satires of these friendly endangered species are highlighted in my favourite themes.
Besides some talent displayed in numerous local art competitions and exhibitions,I do have an idiosyncratic sense of humor. Under the name "Mr.Owat" I used to enlivened the pages of the local daily with cartoons, from hilarious to biting.
My current series of Golf Satires is not based on hearsay- I am a lousy golfer myself, currently a 15-handicapper. But I see even my favourite sport from a satirical point of view. The fact that the word “orang" means "person" in Borneo is not lost on an artist who creates a bit of deliberate confusion between the "man of the forest"and the "man of city". This is what makes me depict not people aping monkeys, but orangutan aping man. well,why not, when serious (human) golfers claim to have seen a "birdie" or an "ëagle" or “hole-in-one”on the links. Mr.Owat (Its myself)sees a hornbill feather in each creation, to make the point that I live in the peaceful "Land of Hornbills"(Sarawak). My logo floats on a gentle breeze somewhere near the edge of each painting- Just Look For It!
Personal Quote: “As an artist, I am given to work using the right side of the brain, but to market my products, I have to force myself to use the other side. Having anything “two” at the same is not easy to handle”.
Yours Humbly truly,
Muyang Kumundan
