This move placed the artist in the midst of a bourgeoning local arts scene, led by the pioneering artists who had arrived in Singapore in the late 40s and early 50s. Taught most notably by artists Cheong Soo Pieng and Georgette Chen, Tay began the development of his own distinctive style which ranged from the depiction of rural village life in Southeast Asia, to modernist experiments in abstraction, as well as sculpting.鄭志道（1941-）《鄉景》設色紙本 鏡心
