Dozens of art lovers are making their way to the Alliance Francaise in Kg Telanai to catch a glimpse of the artworks created by two respected artists from Brunei, Pg Kamarulzaman and Osman Mohammad.

The duo's exhibition opened last Friday, drawing in crowds that included foreign dignitaries such as First Secretary of the French Embassy Mr Arnaud Rayar. Also present at the launching was Miss Melanie Caulomb, the new director of Alliance Francaise, as well as other local artists.

On display are 15 art pieces - seven created by Pg Kamarulzaman and the remaining eight by Osman Mohammad.

Pg Kamarulzaman is showcasing 'Morning in January', 'The Great Barracuda', 'Silhouette at Balaton Lake,' 'Fern 1', 'Fern 2 El Matador' and 'Spirit of Budapest'. Osman Mohammad has put on show 'Windows', 'Exhilarations', 'Celebrations Sketchbook: Landmark', 'Gala', 'Horizon at the East', 'Vegetation' and 'Waves'.

The pair are showcasing different art forms with Pg Kamarulzaman employing more emphasis on yellowish and brown colours, while Osman Mohammad has applied bright colours to his work.
