Gan Chin Lee – one of the five young Gans in Malaysian art and mostly doing figuratives – has greatly improved his skills, style and concept since doing his Masters at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing (2008), where he got the Bronze Graduate Creation Award. In 2005, he did his advanced studies in mural painting there. On his return, he was adjudged one of the winners of the Malaysia Emerging Artists Award. He first graduated with a diploma in Illustration from the One Academy of Communication Design, Kuala Lumpur, in 1998, when he got a Platinum Award. The woman in the work is probably a student from his art school who had graduated, and thus the congratulatory flowers. She is rather tall but has simple taste, as can be gleaned from her hairband and sandals. Gan held his Soliloquy solo exhibition at Valentine Will Fine Art in Kuala Lumpur in 2013.
