MORE than a hundred of artworks of Tan Choon Ghee — touted by many as the best watercolour artist of his generation — is up for display at the Penang State Art Gallery (PSAG) in Dewan Sri Pinang until Sept 30.

Kam Hye Sin, the artist’s widow, recently entrusted PSAG with 124 artworks painted between 1958 and 2000.
