Born in 1952, the year of the dragon, Gloria Keh began painting since childhood. Her late father, the oil painter, Martin Fu, was her first teacher.  Although he painted in the traditional style of the old masters, he encouraged Gloria to paint in abstraction; to be fearless in expressions and to be bold.As an adult, unable to make a living as acontemporary artist, Gloria worked as a journalist for travel trade magazines.
At the age of 42, Gloria retired from the workforce to study yoga and vedanta, and also to return to painting. She studied mandala art and symbolism in Melbourne, Australia for over 10 years and undertook a short course in art therapy at La Salle college for the arts in Singapore.

These include events like New York Art Expo, the Shanghai Art Fair, Affordable Art Fairs in Hong Kong and Singapore,  Bienal de Arte Barcelona, Spain,  London Contemporary International Art Fair, Rude & Bold Women Art Show (New York), Art Basel Miami, USA.
