Jehan Chan

Jehan Chan (1937 - 2011) was active/lived in Malaysia.  Jehan Chan is known for Painting.

Jehan Chan had found his trademark style when he first fused rice-paper into his watercolours of landscapes and the Malacca River, and then bigger slabs to simulate lotus leaves in his hugely popular acrylic paintings of koi (Japanese carps).

A brilliant watercolourist, he reflected the best of his tutelage in the Nanyang Academy of Fine Art (NAFA, Singapore), under the personal supervision of the great Cheong Soo-pieng.

His other early mentors were his father, Chan Wee Sim, and Chung Chen Sun, the founder of the Malaysian Institute of Art – both excelling in Chinese brush paintings.

Born Chan Yee Hing, Jehan was given his first two solos at the Samat Art Gallery, in1968 and 1970, by the most fastidious Frank Sullivan. In 1991, he had another solo at The Art Gallery Penang before he held his solos everyday at his host of galleries in Malacca.

His early promise can be seen in his 1st Prize (D Category) award in the prestigious Salon Malaysia in 1969.   ...  [Displaying 1000 of 1147 characters.]  Artist bio
