Around Kreta Ayer


I probably lost concentration after drawing the roof section on the top left. This is Kreta Ayer Road. On the far left is the Sri Layan Sithi Vinayagar Temple.


This is the Buddha Tooth Relic Temple in the heart of Chinatown. I'm not a big fan of drawing temples. This temple has lots of pillars, beams and lines. It's a challenge to simplify all the lines.

There should be 10 times more tourist than what I've depicted.

Both are drawn with ink and markers on Zeta sketchbook. I'm 5 spreads away from filling the book.

The Dearth of Horizontal A4 Watercolour Sketchbooks

After going through several huge travelogue sketchbooks, I've decided to bring a horizontal A4 sketchbook for the Barcelona trip.

Interesting. There aren't a lot of manufacturers who make horizontal A4 watercolour sketchbooks.

The only one I can think of is Moleskine with their A4 Watercolour Album. I was actually thinking about Stillman & Birn but their largest horizontal is 9 by 6 inches for the Alpha and Gamma sketchbooks.


So this has 60 pages. I just have to fill 5 big pages each day for my 12-day trip.
