Artist CNK:

"As a child, my favorite hobby was to draw and paint. I studied painting as a young student and my teachers are Ko Ko Lay (Mandalay) and U Khin Maung (Bank). I also read a lot of books about art growing up. I worked as a civil servant in the Department of Agriculture after I graduated and lived mostly in small towns and rural areas during this period. I continued to paint throughout this period and in 1985, I participated in my first group art exhibition at Judson Church in Yangon.

In 1985 I opened my own gallery called Broken White Gallery in Monywa, Sagaing near Mandalay. I also started teaching and conducted painting classes for young students. In the year 2000, I moved to Yangon and had my first solo exhibit at IVY Gallery. I have participated in 18 International art exhibitions and have participated in 8 art related workshops. I have to date held 10 solo exhibits and have participated in over 90 group exhibitions in Myanmar. I will continue to draw and paint for as long as I can."
