[July 26, 2011] Near Seoul City Hall




[July 26, 2011] @ "fashion into art" exhibition

across the Sajik park to Gwanghwamun

at Pilundong, pencil, watercolor, 30 x 40 cm
When I crossed the Sajik road I could see the blue building with irregular windows. A man seated on a red chair looking at the street. I began to sketch him at first because I was not sure that he'd stay long there.

at Naejadong, charcoal, 30 x 40 cm
I was walking down to Gwanghwamun. These days there are so many glass wall buildings that the reflected image on walls made attractive focus in street scenery. In the small resting place I could sketch this thankfully. It seemed to rain soon getting darker.

Arriving at the Gwanghwamun, Sejong Street, I tried to sketch the Gwanghwamun at first, but I changed my mind looking back. The bridge between the Integrated Government buildings seemed worthwhile to draw.  After finishing this I took a bus coming home. At last it rained heavily while my being at bus. But finishing sketches gives energy in spite of being caught in the rain without umbrella.

중복

중복날. 친구네 집에서 옷닭을 해 먹었습니다.
닭을 안쳐놓고 장기 한판을 두며 기다리고 있습니다.
참고로 저희 아저씨가 이겼다는^^

I took a photo at the guitar shop.

Though it was a humid, hot day 11 participants came for sketching including three new comers, Kim Sang Deuk, Kim Kyung Min, and Park Ji Woong,  who were greeted warmly by all other sketchers. Inside the arcade it was cool by air-conditioning; so we could enjoy sketching on 2nd and 3rd floors. The arcade locates near Insadong, the traditional cultural street where many galleries  are clustered. And close to the arcade locates Tapgol park where the Independence Statement was announced on March 1st, 1919. Thank you all the participants!

우리집의 풍경

  매일 보는 감나무와 항아리들이지만
그림의 한컷이 되니 느낌이 다르다.
울집 멍멍이들...이리저리 움직이다가 스케치하는
 것을 아는지 빤히 쳐다본다.(쉽독과 진돗개)
