AbeyZoul's love of watercolor began with an early dedication to the Kelantanese landscape tradition and the modern architectural discipline. Following more than 15 years as a very successful architectural designer and illustrator in Kuala Lumpur, he  began to focus on fine art in 2012; his love of landscape, as well as our constructed environment, continue to inform his work in watercolor. He is particularly inspired by the idea of a "sense of place" -- the presence, memory, narrative, and especially the luminosity of the idea of buildings in both the rural and urban landscape, and he believes that the medium of transparent watercolor is unsurpassed in its ability to convey both the real and transient nature of the world around us.
