A sense of airiness and light pervades the rural landscapes of A.B. Ibrahim. These observations of the countryside (fishing village) often depict wooden houses by the beach, surrounded by traditional boats, trees and foliage. A.B. Ibrahim held a solo exhibition in Dewan Besar Perniagaan Cina, Ipoh in 1962. Group exhibitions include exhibitions of Persatuan Pelukis Melayu, Singapore (1945-1970), Penang Trade Fair (1948), and 4th Malayan Artists Association Exhibition, British Council, Kuala Lumpur (1958). He was the founder member of Persatuan Pelukis Melayu, Malaya based in Singapore.
