Day 3 in Taipei

Day 3 in Taipei - my 1st sketch. We met other Taipei sketchers at the Red Theatre at Ximending. The Red Theatre was built by the Japanese as their entertainment centre when Taiwan was under Japanese's control. Now it is the incubation design centre for the young entrepreneurs. I bought a sliver ring from a young local designer.

Warming up piece. So many people watched over my shoulder and I really felt overwhelmed. Also I had to move a few times when the signage contractor came and did some welding job to put up a very big signboard just over the roof where I was sitting. A tiny spray of welding sparks also dropped towards me. It probably burnt a tiny strand of my hair. HA!
