Oil on Stretched Canvas, 51cm x 71cm x 2.5cm
“Eternal Watch” is a poignant oil-on-canvas portrait that masterfully blends a realistic likeness of Lee Kuan Yew with a luminous, nocturnal view of the Singapore skyline.
The composition utilises a double-exposure effect, merging the founding father’s figure with the very architecture that defines his legacy.
The integration of the city’s reflection in the water at the bottom of the frame anchors the portrait, creating a cyclical flow between the man, the land, and the future he helped shape.
The piece stands as more than just a portrait; it is a visual tribute to the symbiotic relationship between a leader’s spirit and the enduring landscape of his country.
This artwork will be professionally framed and fixed
