6 Letter Brunch Cafe at Crawford Lane

This morning I joined I Jio You Sketching! and Cafe Sketchers Singapore to sketch at 6 letter brunch at 464 Crawford Lane. I had the big breakfast and my usual long black at the bottom right of this sketch. So happy to sketch with younger friends as they made me feel very much younger!

I sketched on the last three pages of Baohong Accordion Sketchbook square format with the new long-kinfe-nib fountain pen and Winsor and Newton watercolours.
