Perak Chinese Assembly Hall organised a walkabout at the Hua Kei Cemetery on 22/10/23.  People started gathering at 6.30 am and the weather was just fine.  The President of the Perak Chinese Assembly Hall, Datuk Kwan gave a short speech.

Several Chinese Associations had bought up plots of burial land for their members.

Cartoon Inspiraton

 Got inspired after visiting LAT Home Gallery.  I was thoroughly thrilled when I saw all the smiling faces from the visitors to the gallery.  

There is this feeling of delight and youthfulness when one is in a world of cartoons. Cartoon strips can depict scenes which are out of the ordinary, even fantasy scenes.  

So, why not join in the fun by drawing a few cartoons ourselves!!  Especially so when we can draw digitally.  Mistakes can be just erased.  No wastage of paper.  Try it out and remember to post for all to see. 

LAT Home Gallery

The LAT Home Gallery is about 30 minutes away from Ipoh by car  It is located next to the Silverlake development in Batu Gajah.  

LAT is the nickname for Dato Mohd. Nor Khalid who is a cartoonist.  He sketches both local village and town  themes with a good mix of humour.  He has a very distinct way of drawing human figures.

The art displays are mainly in black and white.  There are also some figurines.  

A replica of his Kampung House is erected beside the main art gallery. 

A very worthwhile visit to enjoy the showpieces of a local artist, his life history and awards.
