About Ismail Mat Hussin

Ismail Mat Hussin (b. 1938 – d. 2015, Kelantan) began studying painting from the age of twelve, first under the tutelage of Nik Mahmood at the Padang Garong Malay School, and then under the mentorship of Malaysian painter Khalil Ibrahim, who taught him batik paintings. His paintings are known for his use of warm, earthy tones to capture scenes from everyday kampung (village) life in the East Coast of Peninsular Malaysia. Alongside his art practice, he also worked as a graphic designer and illustrator with Syarikat Percetakan Dian (Dian Printing Company) in Kota Bharu from 1979 to 1991. He also held a Grade V in violin and worked as a part-time musician with the Kota Bharu branch of RTM Malaysia in the late 60s.
