Artober -- Oct 30, 2008

I just join my art friend Diahn's Artober movement. Here is a sketch I did today for Wetcanvas's Scavenger Hunt as "Made of paper".

SketchCrawl#20 & Artober -- October 25, 2008

Today I combine my art's friend, Diahn, Artober sketching with World-wide SketchCrawl#20 right here in Bangkok.

I am not sure if anyone had done previous Sketchcrawl in Bangkok, Thailand before. At least I am the one who went solo here this time. The day started by I did some plein air sketching of the outside view of my neighborhood. Then I packed my sketching stuffs and getting in a cab for some down town adventure by Chraopraya River. The cab snaked through the neighborhood roads to one of the major pier on the west side of Bangkok, Pepsi pier. This pier is the place where all Pepsi products get distributed by giant ships to the northern part of the country. I wonder if Coke has the similar type pier but so far I heard of none. I sketched some parked Tuk Tuks at the pier entrance, then the pier. Then I hopped on the ferry to cross Chraopraya River but my art tote's strap malfunctioned and it was no longer fun to travel with both hands hauling the bag instead of carrying it. So I ended up sitting at the ferry pier of the otherside of the river to do some more sketching of the river leaping to downtown Bangkok. All in all it took about 2 hours of sketching. I had a lot of fun and thanks for looking at my results. This was my first SketchCrawl and I hope to join some more in the future.

Artober -- Oct 24, 2008

I just join my art friend Diahn's Artober movement. So today I sketched some stuffs as a part of Wetcanvas Scavenger Hunt#106.

Artober -- Oct 23, 2008

I just join my art friend Diahn's Artober movement. I did not sketch for the past two days. I had to wake up at 4:00 am to work (help setting up the commencement ceremony at Univ. and work at the office afterward till late evening). That makes me hang over for two days.

Anyway, here are some more figure sketching I did today on my big sketch book as a warm up for this Sat. Oct 25 World-wide sketch crawl. Today sketches are from some super quick poses of my daughter playing in the bath tub. She does not stay still more than 10 seconds so it is a challenging thing but fun for me. I have trouble trying to get the proportion right.
