Jolyn Cheah, 38, started cross-stitching when she was about five years old, having always been interested in crafts since young. Through the years, she’s also engaged in costume jewellery-making, resin jewellery, polymer clay art and soap-making.
And thanks to the movement control order, she can now add another craft to her list – making watercolours for her hobbies, which include painting, calligraphy and paintbrush lettering.

The watercolours created by Cheah are made with honey, gum Arabic and colour pigments.
Metallic watercolours are very popular among calligraphy and brush lettering artists, says Cheah.
The process of making the paints is therapeutic for Cheah.
Cheah enjoys creating metallic colours because they are eye-catching and trendy.
