Here, Khalil Ibrahim illustrates a behind-the-scenes look at nautical folk — ladies harvesting seashells. Some of them are seen carrying baskets full of seashells on their heads. Khalil Ibrahim won a Pahang State scholarship to study at the St Martins School of Art in London where he graduated with a National Diploma of Design in 1963 and followed up with a postgraduate study. On his return, he was relieved of his contract and he had been a fulltime artist since September 1966. He was given a double solo of his London works and Malaysian batik paintings at the Samat Art Gallery, Kuala Lumpur in 1970. He was the first Malaysian to have a solo in Indonesia in 1970. He co-founded the Malaysian Watercolour Society. His major solo shows included Khalil Ibrahim: The Art Journey in Petaling Jaya (2015), and Khalil Ibrahim: A Continued Dialogue at Galeri Petronas, Kuala Lumpur in 2004. He has also been featured in major national exhibitions abroad. Henry Butcher Art Auctioneers (HBAA) paid a tribute to Khalil Ibrahim at HBAA booth in Art Expo Malaysia 2018.
