		At the age of 11 when Lee Kian Seng cycled around Klang sketching and painting whatever caught his fancy, he did not know that he was destined to be a fulltime artist and that his works on his hometown would have historiacal value.
		The earliest work still in his collection is a 1959 scene of fishing boats moored on the muddy bank of the Klang River near where the existing Kota Bridge is. Even at the age of 11, his talent was evident.
		Kian Seng will still continue with his Klang works and though the scenes are familiar, his techniques are evolving and each new work will not be the same as the previous one.
