It's Vacation!

I was on leaves last weekend since it was Poly's vacation and I went to continue my sketch at Marina Bay Sands. This is work in progress from Oct 2020 when you could see the two towers at Liang Court. Today there are still there but much shorter.

Back to Office

So after work from home for so long, I went back to the office today to finish the work on big banner and decals for the campus. Drama happened in the background - first, the 'green' boom lift operator stranded for an hour waiting for his senior to rescue him, then the boom lift got stuck at the 'tunnel road' connecting east and west campus like the Suez canal, plus it was raining today. So glad it's finally done!

March Sketchwalk at Beo Crescent / Tiong Bahru

Hi Sketchers!
This month we will be sketching in the Beo Crescent and Bukit Ho Swee area (Tiong Bahru). It took the name from the nearby Beo Lane, also located off Havelock Road. Beo Lane – Beo means temple in Hokkien and Teochew – was named in 1907 after the three Chinese temples in the vicinity. The temples were burnt and destroyed in the 1961 Bukit Ho Swee Fire, and the road itself was later expunged.
In light of the COVID situation, we urge everyone to remain cautious, mask on at all times and keep to groups of 5 people maximum with a minimum distance of no less than 15m between each group.

Time: 9:30AM - 12.30PM
Location: Various locations around Beo Crescent and Bukit Ho Swee neighbourhood
Nearest MRT: Tiong Bahru Station
Buses: 14, 16, 33, 51, etc

First SUTD Sketchwalk

The tutors and students held our first SUTD sketchwalk at Substation before their semester break. Students are not familiar with the history of Substation and it was great for some of them to explore and view the exhibition via SeptFest 2021: Projek Orang Asli by Zai Kuning.
If you not already known, The Substation’s Board of Directors has decided to permanently close down the Substation. Press release here

Singapore Skyline at Marina Bay

I have done sketches, watercolours in sketchbook and loose papers many times for this same view. This was done before circuit breaker (lockdown) last year. I did two that day but totally forgotten about this one.

Result of January Sketchwalk at Chinatown

Chinatown is buzzing this morning as Chinese New Year is another two weeks away. Last year this time before Covid-19 lock down, it was really crowded with tourists and local shoppers. Now, I only saw one group of German tourists among the local crowd in the morning. The first storey used to be a souvenior shop with all the display stands outside the shop and now a restaurant is occupaying that space with tables and chairs placed along the corridor of the shophouse.

Today, I tried a different approach by adding watercolour washes first before pen work on loose Saunders Waterford watercolour paper, adding colours and continue with pen work again. I added more human figures at home to bring out the festive mood and instill positivity during this trying time of Covid-19 pandemic.

Raffles Marina

Thanks to the club's management and USKSG's admins that we had a fruitful sketchwalk today with so many like-minded sketchers at Raffles Marina. It was great meeting so many new and old sketchers on location but we could not mingle and talk. I really hope we can talk and share sketches freely again one day and take a group photo just like we used to do. Nevertheless, we had a zoom session in the afternoon for those who can make it home on time.

Result of November Sketchwalk

I arrived at around 11:30am and the sky was still gloomy, otherwise, with the light and shadow, the place would be more charming. I mentioned before how Emerald Hill adopted the woonerf concept when I was involved in the urban design at URA in early 80s. It used to have so many dilapidated charming shophouses and now this place attracted so many loaded locals, expatriates and young yuppies. 

I was sitting at the junction of Emerald Hill and Hullet Road. Hullet was named after the Principal of Raffles Institution.

Inktober2020 - Mission Complete

Zoom meeting

Zoom meeting is now the norm and we had 'hold-up' not a 'throw-down' or 'show and tell' meeting after a sketchwalk.

Last Saturday we went to Little India to sketch trying to bring some postitive energy to celebrate Deepavali. I sat alone in a quiet corridor opposite a very interesting blue shophouse. We had a Zoom meeting in the afternoon since we could have a show and tell at the end of the sketchwalk.

Left portion of a long sketch. The Great Madras, a boutique hotel was on the left with its art deco facade facing a quiet street. Dunlop Street where I was sitting, was comparatively busier with a few barber shops, restaurants and provision shops still seeing customers going in and out but all doors of the tour agencies were shut during this trying period.

Right portion of a long sketch. This blue colour shophouse caught my attention. The blue facade on second story was cladded with wood panels and it was the shortest shophouse at Dunlop Street. Cool & Joy Barber occupied a narrow shopfront between the two shophouses. It was so cool.
