Welcome to Lee Boon Wang's Art Gallery

Welcome to the website of Lee Boon Wang
Art Gallery. This site provides you with a glimpse of
the work of one of the well known artists in Singapore.
Mr. Lee's favourite media was oil although he often used
watercolour. His realist style had won him the
recognition in Singapore as well as in South East Asia.
He received numerous awards and commissions both at home
and overseas. |
Singaporeans love his portrayal of the old Singapore
River (right), something that the younger generation can
no longer experience in the modern-day Singapore. |

Mr. Lee travelled widely in search of
painting subjects. His footprints could be found all
over South East Asia, particularly Bali, Indonesia (top
left). In China, his favourite destination was the
Province of Yunnan, where he felt the vibrant mood of
the minority tribes (bottom left). He also visited
Europe and the U.S. In his paintings, we can literally
feel his love of humanity as he portrayed the lives of
the local people. |

Another passion of Mr. Lee was sailing. Not only was
he an expert navigator, he showed his love of the sport
through his paintings of scenes of majestic regattas and
serene marinas. |
