Seoul City Hall is one of the most favorite place to sketch in downtown Seoul, so I posted some sketches on usk blog several times. The old city hall building and newly built city hall show not only combination of the architectural style, but historical change of the modern Seoul.
Last Saturday, for the 48th World Wide SketchCrawl, Seoul usk members met at the Seoul Citizens' Hall that is located on the basement floor of Seoul City Hall. The Citizens' Hall serves as a courtyard where Seoulites share their creativity and individuality while participating in various programs such as discussion meetings, workshops, seminars, concerts, exhibitions, special events, and wedding ceremonies.
The day was wet weather with the rainy season, so at first I sketched city hall buildings and streetscape outdoors between rains in the morning. After lunch, enjoying various kinds of performances at Citizens' Hall, I drew some colorful and fantastic sceneries with excitement.

서울시청은 서울의 근대사와 오늘을 이어주며 내일을 그려보는 타임 캡슐입니다~~
소리없는 변화 속에 그릴 때마다 숨어있던 장면들이 되살아나오는 듯 새롭게 다가옵니다.
스케치의 소재가 주변 가까이에, 가는 곳마다, 갈 때마다 다르게 펼쳐 있는 것이 
서울 스케치의 매력입니다.

sketches at Daehakro & Hyehwadong, Seoul

Arco Arts Theater, Daehakro, Dongsungdong, pencil, watercolor, A 4

House of Chang Myun(1899 - 1966, Ex-Prime Minister, Ex-Vice President), Hyehwadong, Seoul, designated on 2007 as Cultural property of Seoul City, pencil, pastel, A 4

It was a hot day. But the sunlit red brick buildings at Marronnier Park, Dongsungdong were beautiful. It was meaningful to be able to sketch the private house of Chang Myun, which was designated as cultural property of Seoul on 2007. I went inside the house. Main building was of Korean style house and the annexed building for the visitors and secretaries was not of traditional style, but of compromised one.
