When it comes to having the Midas touch, Omar Juree's work of art is what comes to mind.
Taking inspiration from the famed Bukit Bendera trains and ferries, the talented woodcarver counts transforming Penang's life-sized attractions into whimsical miniatures as his forte.
Despite being in his late 60s and wheelchair-bound, Omar's sheer talent triumphs over the two.
When it comes to the price tag, these beauties range between RM250 to RM800- a STEAL for such an intricate process.
To this day, he has commissioned over 500 pieces of the scaled-down wooden carvings, making waves both locally and abroad.
