Ong Lai Art
Â
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.
Â
Also I drew a cartoon pineapple and I think it’s cute.
Â
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.
