Green Landscape lends itself to the peregrinations of the self in a shifting terrain, where reminiscences and interpretations do not general take a literal route, and where the inconstant moods mingled with changing perceptions of place. It was a time before Dato Tajuddin Ismail launches into his more introspective Innerscapes.
Tajuddin graduated in Graphic Design at the Art Centre College of Design in Los Angeles, the United States, in 1974. He did his Post-graduate Interior Architecture at the Pratt Institute in New York in 1979-81.

He set up Tj Fine Art in 2004. After teaching at the University Mara Institute of Technology for several years, he joined Sunway University as Fine Arts Department Associate Professor and Academic Adviser.
