Morning walk and sketch

School holidays and I'm going walks with my kids around waterway......saw a couple of  monitor lizards, Kingfishers and everyday I'm sketching 360 degree views from the same shady spot under the bridge....can't go too far with kids and can't spend more than 1 hour in sketch.....I find this an opportunity to learn sketching as many possible scenes around the same place. There is always room for improvement!

Yesterday....

This is a studio painting from a previous on location study to capture the white herons, as seen from Sengkang floating wetland.

Birdwatching Plein air

An 1 1/2 hour study ( on Saturday) in oil in the bird-watching spot of Sengkang Floating Wetland, can see lots of White Herons on the trees. They keep coming seasonally to the same place, usually a lot more than seen in the photo here.
