Brompton bicycle

Michael Lum, a visiting architect loaned his folding bike for my drawing class on Thursday. Only a few students in my class made an attempt to draw the beautiful folding bike. I did three quick part-detail sketches in the class.

A Brompton bicycle costs around S$2,000 imported from UK and there are faithful followers in Singapore.

caught the sketching bug during work

A colleague brought this bicycle to the studio for students to draw. The sketching bug got onto me that I had to sit next to the students and sketch. The young student sitting next to me must have felt so intimidated as he took a very long time to just draw a few lines. I remember talking to myself : "How is he going to finish the drawing with tonal values before the class ends? Oh dear, I better leave now." So I left the class without looking at his face and please if you are that student reading this, I apologise for intruding into your class.
