Attributed to Famous Artist Alex Leong -Original Watercolour - Malaysia - Vtg

This work is signed Lee Teck Leong, is in the likeness of Alex Leong, after extensive research I've concluded that they are one in the same persons, perhaps an earlier work then a name change. Here is what is documented about Alex Leong, born in 1969 and raised on Malay Street near Komtar, he found his calling immortalising memories of his city so that they will not be lost to time. His works are catching the attention of collectors in recent years, especially when his works are actively auctioned off. With a few solo exhibitions along his journey as an artist, he has been actively participating in group exhibitions locally and abroad, e.g. China, Indonesia, Singapore and Korea. His watercolour compositions of famous street scenes in Malaysia are well sought after by collectors. His work's depiction of the good old days capture the charms of a bygone era and will speak to most locals of a certain vintage . It’s especially so for those who grew up around the quaint streets of George Town, Penang, during the 1970s and 1980s when life was much simpler and more carefree. This watercolour panorama is bright and filled with detail and life. It was purchased from a high end estate sale, if it can be authenticated the estimated value would be minimum 1200 -1800 dollars. Beautifully professionally framed and matted, it's in very nice vintage condition. Measuring: Frame: 16" x 13" Image: 10" x 7.25"
