Khik Weng Keat was born in 1998. He has a passion for drawing at a very early age. During his early years, he sometimes carries a drawing board around and draws what is in his mind. He never fails to either hold a pen, pencil, paper or a drawing board on his hands. He has begun his painting journey in October 2017 at the age of 19. Throughout the journey, he has progressed from drawing on paper to art blocks and to drawing on a canvas with acrylic paints. He also uses color pencils to color his drawings and sketches.
After passing his SPM examinations, he underwent early fine art training under The One Academy before getting the privilege of being under the tutelage of Awas Studio, where his skills are being polished.
