"GOD, in Susanna Goho-Quek’s eyes, is a huge man with flowing, wild hair, painting away merrily as He clutches a palette in His hand. With His gigantic paintbrush, He painted on his canvas, the world.... “I see God’s hand in creation. I began to hear the birds and enjoy the raindrops and thunderstorms,” Goho-Quek, in her 60s, said. Even a dry leaf could be her source of inspirations. “It had so many beautiful colours – red, yellow, green and brown. It’s a painting God did for me,” she said. “Parents can read it to their kids... and I even know of a little girl who brings friends over to paint according to the illustrations!” Goho-Quek said.
