information for exhibitions

어제 전시 관련 안내 메일을 보냈습니다. 참고하시고 좋은 의견 주시기 바랍니다.
오는 26일에 비가 올거라는 뉴스가 있지만 다행히 실내에서 스케치 할 수 있을 듯합니다.
그날 뵙고 자세한 보고 드리겠습니다.
(I sent informing mails for exhibitions to the participants. It's said that it will rain on 26th, February sketchcrawl. But we may be able to sketch inside the Seoul Folk Flea Market. Hope to discuss more about our exhibitions.)

Reminiscence of Changgyeonggung

A few days ago, I dropped in at Changgyeonggung quite by chance and started on a drawing. I have sketched the ancient architectures on the very site two years ago. The memories of my childhood days came back to me while sketching, because my hometown from the age of five is around here.

two mannequins at department store

On the way going to the Woori Bank building located at Hoehyun-dong near a big department store, I dropped in for sketching the interior scenery. I saw these couple of mannequin in corridor of brand-name shops. After finishing I tried to take a photo putting my sketchbook on her lap but failed by the prohibition of the staff.

The cold of this year is quite unprecedented. I sketched several pieces in the downtown of
Seoul familiar to me with Seoul sketchers. Especially I was impressed by Mr. Stephen Kopp from Australia. Whenever he visit Korea, he joins with us in outdoor sketch.

We enjoyed three days' sketching tour with Stephen Kopp in Seoul. In spite of cold weather he showed his energetic passion for painting inspiring us so much. We thank him, his Korean wife Susie and his beautiful daughter for joining us. We hope them to feel satisfied with staying in Korea and look forward to meeting next year again.

Thanks all for participating in! :)
