"Symphony of Music"


"Symphony of Music"


100cm x 110cm
Acrylic on canvas 
Listen to the sound of the symphony
Listen to the harp strumming melodiously
Listen to the sweetest key swinging its notes gracefully
Listen as the flute flutters its wings magnificently
Listen to the heart that searches for meaning
Listen to your heart humming its notes harmoniously
Looking for a place where heaven and earth can meet
Songs of vibrancy are waiting for release.

May rhythms and melodies sway in life concerto symphony
May the sweetest sound emancipate with ease.

Written by W.H.Yong


Waves of changes and grace flows
Music from heart echoes peace & grace from Heaven's throne, 
It washes every life's ups & downs that often can't be fully understood.

“Come, Rest Awhile”


“Come, Rest Awhile”
100cm x 110cm
Acrylic on canvas
Come, rest awhile, and let us idly stray
In glimmering valleys, cool and far away.

Come from the greedy mart, the troubled street,
And listen to the music, faint and sweet,

That echoes ever to a listening ear,
Unheard by those who will not pause to hear­

The wayward chimes of memory's pensive bells,
Wind-blown o'er misty hills and curtained dells.

One step aside and dewy buds unclose
The sweetness of the violet and the rose;

Song and romance still linger in the green,
Emblossomed ways by you so seldom seen,

And near at hand, would you but see them, lie
All lovely things beloved in days gone by.

You have forgotten what it is to smile
In your too busy life­come, rest awhile.

Lucy Maud Montgomery

“He paints my days”


“He paints my days”
2007
Acrylic on canvas
40cm x 60cm

Awaken by your truth
Taken by embrace
Loved by you
My faith renewed.

My wings strengthen
Your loving kindness bestow
My burden lighten
Just a glimpse of your Majestic power, behold!
Everything you do, I am in awe.

Just a touch of the colour of your grace
You put smile on my face.
You paint my days
Your gracious works I am forever grateful and amazed.

I am His love, His eternal Artistry of grace.

She dance everywhere, freedom emanates in the air.

Give me understanding according to Your word.
Let my supplication come before You;
Deliver me according to Your word.

For all Your commandments are righteousness.

Good friendship is often built on connections and some may take more time to build than others. All connections are golden though!

What is  friendship?

Forgive each other.

Invest in each other.
Encourage each other.
Nurture each other.
Depend on each other.
Share with each other.
Help each other.
Inspire each other.
Pray each other.

They will not be defeated but will endure forever”

“Lights in the Tunnel ”


“Lights in the Tunnel ”
2008
Acrylic on canvas
60cm x 180cm

Some say “There is always light at the end of tunnel”. For some reason, I think there is always a sense of light in and around the tunnel.  The sun will shine both in the morning and night though.

Dreams created in our world
It’s what you hope to find and it is not up to our design
The sun remains to spread its light,
forcing darkness to flee its sight.

The light claiming the world and give its life.
Look to the skies and hope will arise.
Light takes the kindness and shun the evil in disguise.
Keep walking in the light to awaken great passion in life.

“Bubbles of Joy”


“Bubbles of Joy”
2008
Acrylic on canvas
100cm x 100cm

Joy is like bubbles
It appears a little here and there.

It’s a feeling that you can share.
It’s a decision that all hearts bears.
It certainly transpires smiles everywhere.

Such joy!
Inexpressible and hard to describe,
Isn’t a miraculous expression of freedom and innocence
Or sheer of effervescence.

“ Drops of Inspiration”


“ Drops of Inspiration”
2008
Acrylic on canvas
40cm x 150cm


Observing drops of water in a pool inspired me to ponder upon the thought that great life is likely to be impacted by the contribution and sacrifice of only a handful of a few individuals.
A note fell from a serene place.
A slender tinkling fall that made
His peace silences the anxious waves that I faced.

He is forever a living friend of mine.
He turned water into wine.
Drops from heaven is certainly divine
It is certainly better than wine and dine.

A ripple of kindness is not hard to find,
If our hands are open, with His thoughts in mind.

“The ray of winter in Paris ”

2008
Acrylic on canvas
100cm x 95cm
The image of Paris woke me up in the morning one day. The ray of winter in Paris inspired me to see the busyness of life in a lighter way than never before.
Paris,
A place for lovers and shoppers.
A city for wild dreamers to see the bright sky, yearning to shine.
A city that’s always awaken by every human need
Even the winter never goes to sleep
Fashion parades with open arms. 
Its ever glamorous ray beams beyond seasons and times.  
Life in await for reality
The city alights in the shadow of passion and creativity.

“I look up to the mountains;
Does my help come from there?
My help comes from the LORD, who made the heavens & the earth.
He will not let you stumble and fall;
The one who watches over you will not sleep.
Indeed, he who watches over Israel never tires and never sleeps.
The Lord himself watches over you!
The Lord stands beside you as your protective shade.
The sun will not hurt you by day,
Nor the moon at night.
The LORD keeps you from all evil and preserves your life.
The LORD keeps watch over you as you come and go,
Both now and foever
Psalm 121[ NLT]
