Day 2

Arches Watercolour Paper

Size: 630 x 220mm

 

Sketching in a small town called Bekok was like going back to the 60s in Singapore. We all loved the wooden shophouses flanking the main road and many of us chose to sketch these shophouses focusing on the round windows and the surroundings. I was enjoying my pen and ink techniques after watercolour washes to the surprise of a few sketchers in terms of speed and variations in thick and thin lines, solid and dashed strokes as I moved from left to right on the paper. One question was on the lamp posts and vertical elements how and when I decided to exercise the artistic licence not to make them straight.
