Earlier, painters of Malaysia, Vietnam and Thailand went out together to paint. After the exhibition in Hanoi, the artists will open a series of similar event in Malaysia. This program is carried out with the desire that artists should use raw water colors more often and more professionally, rather than to sketch or use in current design. Art critic Phan Cam Thuong commented on works of the exhibition: "Paintings of Malaysian and Thai artists, we see realistic art being respected as the basis for drawing by water colors. Vietnamese artists' paintings are still spontaneous and imaginable than real. Thus, two types are different, resulting in difference in technique of using water colors. Watercolor Exhibition in Hanoi is not just an occasion for the public to admire watercolour artworks, but also a chance for learning, creating, and exchanging culture.
