又一年

Pencil drawing is difficult.  And so lazybone like me is saying goodbye to it (for now, at least), while bidding farewell to the year 2022.  So long.

Merry Christmas!

First collaboration with Go With The Flow 《清心順行》.

I consider the first trial not very successful, as it could not highlight the characteristics of the paper, but I will try again.  If one day I succeed, I will try to make a deal with Go With The Flow as my official paper supplier

Law Uk Folk Museum

 A quick one close to home, but it seems mosquito bites is a must every time I sketch there.

General Post Office

Construction at the part of Site 3 behind the observation wheel has begun.  It may not be long till we need to bid final farewell to the #GeneralPostOffice.  I feel sad already.

Rememberance Day

at City Hall Memorial Garden

 
On Remembrance Day and always, lest we forget.
(The City Hall Memorial Garden was built in memory of the glorious dead in the war years between 1941 and 1945.)

愈基本, 愈困難

Found 2 pieces of Arches MBM paper at home, so I might as well spend it properly with a plaster model.  Not a very good idea at the end, cause it took me longer than 2 months to finish

Oil Street Art Space

Sketchcrawl yesterday at #OilStreetArtSpace.  Fixed the two trees, and the rest would fall into place on their own.  Trust me.

白描

Guangcai workshop resumes this weekend.  Let’s practise some line works to get the feeling of the hands back before going to class!

(P.S.  This is done by putting a piece of paper on top of the original to copy directly.  One of the objectives is to keep practising so that your hands would become very stable…one day...)

Any Chinese painting teachers to recommend?

And this sadly ended the Chinese painting class, as the following term got cancelled :(

Let me know if you have any good Chinese painting teachers to recommend.

大狀王

作為一個畫嘢嘅人, 當然係唔會响場內影相啦 

散場, 好多人擊鼓鳴冤, 希望大家都沈冤得雪.

煲佐一個星期 soundtrack 先入場, 係唔會好似其他觀眾咁拍案驚奇嘅
