Summary
Liu Kang, Artist and Model, 1954, Oil on canvas, 84 x 124cm, Collection of National Gallery Singapore.

"In Artist and Model which shows Chen Wen Hsi sketching a Balinese woman, Liu Kang's dark outlines have become white—an innovation which could have been inspired by batik painting. Painted in 1954, this work may be based on a sketch made during the artists' field trip to Bali two years earlier. Chen is seated, working on a sketching board propped on another rattan chair. This rhythmic repetition of chairs, further echoed by the number and arrangement of tea pot and cups on the round table makes the entire painting delightfully casual and whimsical." Description from Kwok Kian Chow's 1996 book Channels & Confluences: A History of Singapore Art.
