The Art of Choo Beng Teong showcases over a hundred of the prolific artist’s watercolour paintings of birds in their natural habitat. As you turn the pages of this book, you’ll be drawn into an incredible diversity of Malaysian birds that are our last, best connection to an already receding natural world. The remarkable artworks are likely to have a whole new audience reaching for the binoculars!
From pittas and kingfishers to raptors and jungle fowls, Choo’s vivid paintings gleam with dazzling avian beauty; but the best things about his art remain the lush colours and the happy realisation of the interconnectedness of nature. These masterpieces weave an intricate skein of all the avian life he has seen and together, they’ve become a gorgeously painted love letter to birds.
