"We Draw Singapore Together" - May Sketchwalk at Marina Bay

            "We Draw Singapore Together" workshop cum sketchwalk event was organised by Temasek Polytechnic and Urban Sketchers Singapore.....I attended the workshop about Sketching People and had the opportunity to learn under Don Low and James Tan, both are artists, illustrators and Urban Sketchers. They had previously prepared notes and pictures on many related topics.......very insightful. I'm going to sketch people more often.

              On the second day of workshop, I went for the mass sketchwalk at Marina Bay.....Ritu too was sketching with me in the hot and humid weather. Here are our results for the day,

Can you see the Merlion?





Ritu used all the possible tools and medium........charcoal and gouache!



Love this!!
