Breakfast sketch - Albert Centre Food Centre.


Breakfast sketch - Albert Centre Food Centre. 
Kopi is ok ok. Have to add 40 cents to change from Kopi to a 'C' version for my set. That is quite a lot. Kaya bread also ok ok. But the stall banner is nice. Pinkish with a little pavilion icon in bright red umbrella shaped roof theme.

Clover cafe along Syed Alwi Road

Me and my two sketches in Clover cafe along Syed Alwi Road. 





After lunch and seeing that it was going to rain soon, I went into a nice cosy cafe called 'Clover' which I spotted while sketching the shophouses earlier on to chill out. Bought a cup cappuccino and finished off with the cafe sketch. Nice coffee by the way. Not crowded too. 

The final sketch was quite an incidental one. The rain turned into a mini storm and I was stuck. I then had an idea to sketch on a parking coupon entirely with a brush. The waiter & waitresses are my audiences. One was rewarded with my permission to take a photo of the cafe sketch to show it to her boss. :)

Shop Houses along Syed Alwi Road



Sketches 6.12.12.

Second stop before lunch, a panorama attempt at the shop houses along Syed Alwi Road. I have a student walking pass me and watched me sketch for quite a while. Then closed to finishing my audiences were a group of construction workers who happened to settle at the same location as me for their afternoon nap.
