Look for 'Preening', by Seok Yam Chew, on the Gallery.  Wonderful watercolour of a peacock in action - I just felt bound to draw your attention to it!

I hardly every do this sort of thing, but it's the most magical watercolour I've seen in a long time.

I think by the way, and as I remember, that Seok Yam Chew's first names are Yam Chew, and Seok is her surname.   So calling her Seok might be something of a mistake.   I could, mind you, be wrong.  My memory is not what it was. And you all are?

You are probably right Robert! Do we actually know if male or female? No clue from his/her profile.

From a quick Google search Yam is a popular Chinese surname whilst Yam and Chew are boys names. I do know that SYC has been posting for some considerable time and often used to comment on others work in the gallery including mine when I posted regularly.

As. Michael says, she has been posting on the gallery for years and we know her as Seok.

I often comment on her work it so good and always have refers to the artist  as Seok, hopefully not impolitely. She and I’m say she as I don’t really know and for some reason have always thought it was a male artist not that it makes any difference the artwork is superb who ever paints it. Occasionally she comments on my work so must look at the gallery if not the forum . I don’t care who they are as long as we get to see the excellent artwork.

She did tell us once - unfortunately, I don't remember where; probably on one of her Gallery postings.

Seok did explain her name once, to Mia.
