Sketching the Blue House 畫藍屋

Sketching the Blue House 畫藍屋


I went to Stone Nullah Street today to sketch this charming old building again.  The four-storey building was built in 1922 and is one of the few remaining pre-war tenement buildings with large balconies.  One of the shop spaces on the ground level is now converted into a small museum named "Hong Kong House of Stories"  dedicated to preserving old local culture.

寒流下與畫友走到灣仔石水渠街再畫藍屋。四層高的藍屋建於1922年,是香港餘下小數有大騎樓的戰前唐樓。地下其中一個舖位現為「香港故事館」,展覽香港街坊老文化等等。
