A master of craft

A master of craft. [Newspaper] (2019)



Abstract

Met recently at the Borneo Craft Festival Sarawak 2019, the friendly Albot shared that it has always been his passion to hand paint prints. “I used to do it as a hobby, but after I stopped working, I work on this full time.”

The Bidayuh lad who originated from Bau, Sarawak first dabbled in hand-painting artworks in 2005. He recalled painting on a huge piece of paper — one he felt extremely proud of. “I became active after 2010 as I realised that I have talent in this,” he explained. It was then that he saw a market in hand-painted motifs as souvenir pieces.
