Ang-Ray's art work draws from his many inspirations and influences acquired through his traveling and living around the world. Born in Borneo, Ang spent time living in Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Hong Kong, and London before coming to live and paint in New York City.  Through the people and places he has come in contact with, Ang has fused his scenes of everyday life with a world view that expresses his feeling that his art "can result in a spiritual bonding between the artist and his audience."
