"Malaysian born Hock Tee Tan captures something essential and unmistakable about his subjects in his fresh watercolour images. It is with this medium that the Fulham artist really expresses the spontaneous joy of his creativity. His recent ‘Gravity’ series uses the drama of strong colours and a technique of allowing the paint to flow with gravity to create semi abstract emotionally evocative images.”
