About

 

Ong Lai Art was started in 2019 by Ong Wei Ting (that’s me!), and I used the words ‘Ong Lai’ because I wanted  something that encompassed my Singaporean, Chinese and Hokkien identity, Hence I chose the pineapple – a fruit we are all familiar with in the tropics, and whose name in the Chinese Hokkien dialect is ‘Ong Lai’ – we share the same first character in our name! Phonetically.

 

Also I drew a cartoon pineapple and I think it’s cute.

 

Almost 4 years on, and I’m still in the business of turning people’s ideas, memories and stories into art. My work revolves around 2D illustrations, character design, 2D animation, story-telling, comics, posters and I hope to continue looking for a greater variety of work! For my individual clients, I have done very personalised items like wedding stationery and online messenging stickers. For my larger corporate clients, I have done 2D animation for music videos, illustrations for educational collaterals and comics to inspire innovation.

 

Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you would like to find out more or work together with me!
