SELECTED WORKS
133 WORKS FROM 81 SELECTED PARTICIPANTS
"I love art since school days. It makes me happy. After stopping for a while, the opportunity for me to
continue to pursue my interest in art happened on Aug 2012, when a friend introduced me to Mr Jimmy
Quek. At first, I thought I would only take up a few lessons, but now in 2019, I am already in my 7th year of
painting with Jimmy. Initially, my image of an artist is one who will only teach the basics and keep the
'secret recipe' to himself, but Jimmy is certainly not such instructor. His teaching is profound and
demonstrates in-depth insights into art. He is a sincere artist, earnest in imparting his experiences and
knowledge to his students. He has no reservation nor intends to keep his 'secret recipe' when comes to
teaching. He is there to inspire the next generation of painters, and one can certainly feel his passion for
art.
'Art is never-ending. Colour unifies and signifies one's inner world.'
I am proud and privileged to learn under Jimmy's guidance. I humbly share my 5 paintings, to be part of
'Ongoing Art Sessions 10th Anniversary'. Congratulation Jimmy!" - Janivfer Lim.

"The
reason
why
I
wanted
to
be
taught
by
Jimmy
Quek
was
his
open-mindedness
towards
art
and
his
wonderful
use
of
colours.
His
use
of
colour
is
so
extremely
beautiful.
The
combination
of
his
colours
and
the
vibrancy
of
them.
It
results
in
dreamy paintings representing an ideal world." - Bianca Kremer.

ONGOING ART SESSIONS
10TH ANNIVERSARY COMMEMORATION
I am open to helping and counselling people who want to learn art. I
have been teaching visual arts at my home studio since 2009. This
year marks the tenth anniversary of my continuous service.
I have met wonderful people from different backgrounds, ages, and
careers. They come from many countries, such as Singapore, Britain,
India, Netherlands, Nigeria, America, Japan, France, Philippines,
Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Russia, Myanmar, Costa Rica, Australia,
Kazakhstan, Vietnam, Serbian, Korea, Portugal, Holland, Hong Kong,
China, Ukraine and Tibet. They all enjoyed and improved from the
art sessions. I was glad to see their growth and transformation
through art. Some of them became my friends. I appreciated their
friendship.
To celebrate the tenth anniversary, I created this website to
showcase and share their art. I chose 133 diverse and unique
artworks by 81 participants who practised art with me between 2009
and 2019. I want everyone to see their amazing creations.
Congratulations to the participants. I am proud of your
achievements. I hope you keep making and sharing art with more
people.

"Jimmy is a true artist. More than a skilled technician, his dedication to the craft has made
him the free and authentic person that he is who is open to different notions of beauty.
This translates into the peaceful environment that he provides for practice and is felt
through his calm, patient and understanding demeanour when teaching.
From him, I have learnt that I have a voice. For even when I run out of words, I now know
to use colour, lines and shapes to communicate. He listens to my ideas and challenges
me to consider the alternatives. His belief in me gives me the confidence to share my
work and to explore different art forms.
It is indeed one of life's blessings that our paths crossed 10 years ago. Today, I continue to
enjoy the friendship and banter with a mentor in Jimmy and Siew Hooi, a true artist in her
own right, who makes the community complete. Thank you for being advocates of honest
expression and creativity." - Vivien Lee. ( http://www.vivienleeart.com/ )
