Cyber Lion & ArtScience Museum - The Future of Learning

Ernest often challenges himself as an artist and puts a lot of detail into each of his artwork.
For this piece, he uses adobe illustrator and recreates the mighty and historic lion symbol of Singapore as a cyber lion. He sees the future of Singapore as an intelligent city embracing the digital age in all aspects of work and play, especially in the way we learn.

The ArtScience Museum was depicted as it leads the future of learning with its immersive digital art experiences. The butterflies bring to mind how our green city island is creating Butterfly Habitats and Gardens to Enhance Urban Biodiversity.

ARTIST DESIGN by differently-abled artist Dougls (kopi cup and saucer with eggs) and backdrop by Jtmuses -This is how Singaporeans have breakfast in local kopitiams! Growing up in Singapore, one of our all-time favourite breakfast foods is half-boiled eggs with kaya toast with kopi or teh. If there’s a proper skill most locals have, it’s ordering coffee (kopi), from the local kopitiam.

Rabbit Y2023

Rabbit 2023
A rabbit’s best feature? Their long ears! Growing up to 10 centimetres in
length, rabbits can turn their ears by 180 degrees, keeping a
careful listen out for predators. Rabbits are amazing athletes — they can
jump as high as 90 centimetres in one leap!

White-bellied Sea Eagle - largest raptor of Singapore

Joyful Expectations
I am a white-breasted Sea Eagle.
In an aerie on a tree top high; I weave and tuck sticks and moss with intricate joy for a clutch of two.
I soar high where the water sings.
To my nest, I’ll compel my struggling prey
and tend my eaglets till they fledge and dance around the sun.
May God lift you on winds of peace!

A Blast from the Past - commercial shophouse by Douglas

A BLAST FROM THE PAST
Shophouse is drawn by Mentee / PWD: Douglas: Elements of ladies in cheongsam by Jtmuses

Do you remember when we celebrated Chinese New Year with loud firecrackers? We would welcome the lunar new year by lighting up a long string tied to a bamboo pole from our balcony. Others did the same and soon the roads would be littered bright red! Sadly but also to the relief of many, fireworks were banned in March 1972. The police had received 376 complaints about the illegal discharge of firecrackers during the Chinese New Year celebrations that year.

This mixed media piece is the first collaborative piece of artwork by differently-abled artist Douglas Leong, under
a mentor/mentee arrangement. The subject of the shophouses was chosen because it showcases Singapore Shophouses along Koon Seng Road. This is his attempt to capture this slowly disappearing icon on paper. The art piece is further spiced with interesting bits of Straits Peranakan elements by his mentor/artist
jtmuses.

His works have been given as awards during the Enabling Mark Awards launched nationwide on 28 Aug 2021 for 16 exemplary individuals and organizations!
