Malaysian Oriental brush-painting artist thriving in the US


Artist Jamaliah doing what she loves best - Oriental brush painting, which she has been doing for the past 35 years.

Jamaliah Morais works her deft and talented Oriental brush painting strokes at her studio within a Torpedo factory – yes an actual, former torpedo manufacturing factory that was refurbished to become what is now the largest arts centre in the United States.

The Malaysian-born artist has been painting for more than 35 years. The late I-Hsiung Ju, Emeritus Professor of Art, Washington and Lee University, Virginia, described her work as one where “the brush dances and the ink sings”.
