Terence Teo Chin Keong

Terence Teo was born in 1953 in Singapore. He graduated in Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts. He is presently the President of The Society of Chinese Artists in Singapore.

Teo’s newest series of artworks, Romance in Shangri-la, was painted during an extensive trip in Shangri-la, the north of Yunnan, China in 2007.

The unique artworks reflect his elated responses to the magical landscape of Shangri-la, capturing visual delights such as the stunning raw beauty of rainforest, the a mospheric mist, autumn’s falling leaves, the passing cold breeze, the colourful flora.

Spontaneous brushstrokes, adventurous colours and sensitive ink techniques distinguish Teo’s paintings.
