Jansen Chow was born in Kuantan, Malaysia in 1970. He graduated from Kuala Lumpur College of Art in 1992 and has been a full time artist ever since. Jansen has pushed the watercolour medium to uncharted waters with several signature techniques like the stardust highlights, the sequin effect and a mock photo graphic solarisation in free frame stills. " The preparations are more important than the size", he says, " because even a small mistake can spoil it. The work has to be well thought out in terms of subject and execution with the larger watercolour paper primed with gesso for layering as well as to make it thicker as if done by acrylic."
