After having lunch at the Korean restaurant MANNA on the Telok Ayer Street, I did a quick sketch of its shopfront. I sketched another shop along the street, and the entrance of the mosque inside Nagore Durgha.

Nagore Durgha Shrine is located at the intersection of Telok Ayer Street and Boon Tat Street, and this is the view from Boon Tat Street. The architecture is quite unique. I did a quick sketch first before drawing it again on watercolor paper.

Had dim sum brunch at the Crystal Jade of Holland Village last weekend. We were sitting next to the window on the second floor, and I managed to draw this while having dim sum.

Thursday sketchwalk at Teck Lim Road and Bukit Pasoh last week. It was a very hot day. We found a shady spot at Teck Lim Road that looks into the back alley of the shophouses on Kiang Siak Road. Finish two sketches in around an hour.

After lunch, we head to Bukit Pasoh Road and continue to sketch more.

Keow Siong Club

The Gan Clan Association

It happens that we were sketching next to Books Cellar. The owner came out and look at our sketches while we were doing the show-and-tell. He kindly suggests that we can put our sketches for sales at his cafe! What a nice surprise! We also took a look at the cafe and I found it a very cozy place to chill and hangout! I should go back and draw the cafe some time soon!

Marina Bay

Went sketching at Marina Bay last Friday.

This is the Marina Bay Financial Center, a very tall building. It seems that there are still some constructions going on.

There is a reason why the water is pretty clean – there are workers working hard to collect rubbish.

This is the Custom House, there are a number of bars and restaurants there. There isn’t much people in the afternoon, but I can image how lively it’ll be after dark.

Custom House

I found a shady spot with nice views at the end of the Custom House that overlooks Marina Bay Sands. The view is so great that I keep sketching the Art Science Museum (The Lotus) and the Marina bay sands (The Ship) the whole afternoon.
