Let's make this birthday one to remember.

81 years old (Born on May 05, 1943)

Happy Birthday to the legendary Tan Swie Hian! Sculptor, calligrapher, poet—honestly, is there anything you can't do? Your art has gracefully danced across canvases and sculptures alike, earning you Singapore's prestigious Cultural Medallion back in 1987. Clearly, you've been mastering creativity since before it was cool!

Your recent works continue to inspire awe and admiration. Each stroke of your calligraphy seems wiser than the last; each sculpture more vibrant with life. May your birthday be as timeless as your creations—and may you sculpt many more masterpieces (and perhaps a few humorous poems) for years to come!
