Membawa Kelapa |

Rashid says: "As a self-taught artist, I have never been to any art school, or college or university. First, because my old man couldn't afford it, and second because my grades in secondary school weren't all that great. Apart from the lessons I got from my father who was also a painter, I learned from books, exhibitions, and discussions with fellow artists, some of whom were already established, others struggling to irk out a living like me. Apart from painting as a primary source of income, I am keen also in other art forms. I observe our cultural values and the way we live. I see that those values are fast eroding from the onslaught of foreign cultures. In painting portrait, likeness is crucial. That is what my struggle is all about. |
