The sky finally cleared up after a week of rain and the weather was just right for sketching.  Not too hot or too cold!

Taking a Rest at Kowloon Park 下午小休

Taking a Rest at Kowloon Park 下午小休



I happened to pass through Kowloon Park this afternoon.  Knowing that the roses are all in bloom at the Colour Garden, I went there and took a rest.  Sitting down, I noticed the visitors next to me made good sketching subject!   And here's the result of the quick sketch!

路經九龍公園玫瑰園,坐下休息時速畫身邊的遊人。

Centre Street Old Tenement Building 正街唐樓油畫

Centre Street Old Tenement Building 正街唐樓油畫

Oil painting with texture paste, foam boards and acrylic!


Day 1: Building up structure and volume with model paste and foam materials.
Day 2:  The coloring process took a whole day to finish.

Centre Street Tenement Building is an icon at the junction of Centre Street and Des Voeux Road. On the ground level there is also an old-fashioned wine seller, a gem in this part of the city.

上色用上一日。
正街與德輔道交界的地鏢唐樓。唐樓地舖是一間老酒行。每次路經必停步細看。

Painting in Progress: Sheung Wan Tenement Building 上環唐樓製作中

Painting in Progress: Sheung Wan Tenement Building 上環唐樓製作中


I spent a whole afternoon working on the modeling paste and foam materials that gave the painting a more three-dimensional feel.  Now I am waiting for the paste to get dry before I can start working with the colors.

上環唐樓製作中!待平底槳乾後就可以上色。
