Judge Or Be Judged!

And now re-introducing...
Our lovely judges (the nicest people we know!)

Deriving illustrations from ideas generated from his everyday interaction with nature and society, he is a well rounder who works well independently and in a team when it comes to his passion. Dearly known as ANTZ, he has been drawing and illustrating for leisure and work and he never resigned even when the hardest hit him. Collating both cultures and urban influences, corresponding to what he has seen and learnt, ANTZ has been successfully involved in renowned projects and local events such as NIKE, Tiger Beer Translate, Ministry of Sound (Singapore), MTV Asia and many more.

Bubbly, positive and 'crazy' some might say, he is stepping forward to seek new challenges and opportunities to work in matrimony with those in the same capacity. The bond he has with his work is noteworthy and tremendously admired. Three things that would best describe his passion and art work; 'original, invigorating and uniquely refreshed'. Looking ahead to the ever unknown road, ANTZ is all geared up to intensify the industry with his up and coming contemporary designs.
