We are going to Stirling Road!
This saturday's sketchwalk will be around Stirling Road. We will meet at Blk 49 Stirling Rd at a small Nasi Padang coffeeshop at 930am. (Food there is not bad. But their breakfast mee goreng is so-so only. So order other things if you want to eat there.) This is the picture of where we will meet.
From there we will spread out in any direction we like, free and easy. There is a lot of variation here. That's why we picked this place. Old HDB flats and one story houses/flat(?) lay side by side around this area. Lots of high and low structures. There is the Queenstown swimming complex just a little up the road. Further up the road is Mei Ling hawker centre. And if you like to revisit the demolished and revamped Queenstown area just cross Commonwealth Ave and you will see a giant field where Blk 38 is still standing. Oh and the Queenstown library is still there along Margaret Drive. Probably the oldest library in singapore now. It's a simple but interesting area to draw. Talk a walk, relax and sketch. Then meet again at 1230pm on the left side of block 49 Stirling Rd (shown above). There is an open area beside the block for show and tell.
CAUTION: Stirling Rd is small but it is a TWO way road. So please look both ways when you cross!

The closest MRT is Queenstown MRT. Or else, just find a bus that goes along Commonwealth Ave.
Call me, Andrew 91070735 if you can't find your way.
See you there!
