2100 - Stuff

2100 – Stuff

This sketch has been languishing in my sketchbook for a while, so I finished it off. This is drawn sitting by our front door where we have a little table that accumulates stuff. Every now and then I have to actually put some things away! Thu-23-Jun-2022

1788 - Arya Residences

1788 – Arya Residences

Here is the second sketch I did on Sunday during a visit we made to Arya Residences where a friend was holding an exhibition of furniture made from plastic waste (they are called @JunkNot.ph). This is the ceiling and skylight over the open air plaza area where the exhibition was held. Sun-18-Jul-2021

1613 - Quezon memorial

1613 – Quezon memorial

Last Sunday we had a nice morning out at Quezon Memorial Circle – which is a big park situated in the central reservation of a massive multiple lane roundabout. It’s actually nicer than that sounds – but you do also hear a lot of traffic noise as you wander about in the gardens and the endless horticultural sales areas. I sketched this while enjoying a snack and some buko juice (young coconut…

1766 - Villa de Vera

1766 – Villa de Vera

This is a view at the resort we visited with my wife’s work colleagues on Saturday night/Sunday morning. I sat in a little Bahay Kubo (like the one in the background) and connected with my friend @TheArtofBeingPresent to draw this, while adjacent to me people were singing their hearts out on the Videoke machine. This is the first sketch in a newly made sketchbook which uses Rembrandt 300gsm cold…

1188 – Relaxation at the beach Here is the first sketch of several that I did last Saturday on our little weekend break in Lobo, Batangas. I knew that drawing this rattan chair would take a while...but it was a sort of meditative process that was actually quite relaxing. Sat-31-Aug-2019

1115 – Sketcher and bridge Here is my second sketch from the Kyusi Urban Sketchers sketch-walk at Ninoy Aquino Parks and Wildlife Center last Sunday. I guess the lagoon fills up a bit later in the rainy season...at the moment the bridge is over dry land. Sun-9-June-2019

1949 - Ferry to Talim Island

1949 – Ferry to Talim Island

Here is the sketch I did while we were on our way to Talim Island on Sunday. We got on to the ferry only to have to wait for almost an hour before it set off. Unfortunately I started this sketch a bit late and couldn’t finish it on the spot. There was a figure to the right and some other part of the boat which didn’t appear in the photo I took, so I just left that part blank. Sun-2-Jan-2022

1898 - Shopwise

1898 – Shopwise

On Saturday, after a visit to Manila Memorial, we decided to have a quick breakfast out after getting some catfood in Shopwise (a supermarket). We opted for Starbucks (the only place open and with vegetarian options) and had to sit outside because I had forgotten to bring my vaccination card. This was the view over the road – I do love sketching in Metro Manila…there is always so much…

1633 - Too quick

1633 – Too quick

Last Friday we were in town and while my wife was in the bank and I was waiting in the car with the hazard warning lights on (no roadside parking is allowed), I sketched this. She was only in there for a few minutes, so this was one of the quickest sketches I’ve done for a long time and in the process the van kind of got squashed! Fri-29-Jan-2021

1475 – Memorials I'd like to say this sketch was spontaneous so that it fits with the next prompt for day 17 of #WorldWatercolorMonth, but I knew I would do a quick sketch when we stopper by Manila Memorial Park today.

1433 – Flower pot This sketch follows the #Homeboundsketching prompt for 26 May. This clay pot has a bonsai tree in it - one that was given to us, not one we grew!

1382 – What I see before me Here is an end of the day/can't think of what to draw, sketch. My approach is usually to sketch whatever happens to be in front of me - so in this case (as many times before) - it's my pencil case.

1381 – Making the best… ...of a bad situation. Yesterday, after several failed attempts on Monday to order groceries to be delivered on-line, I got to go out to the supermarket.
