two sketches along the street at Susong-dong
Sambong-gil is an old-aged street lined with shops, located on the opposite side of Jongno-gu office. Occasionally I pass by the street, the scenery of low-rise buildings attracts my attention. These works are sketched within a short moment on my way home.

drawings of people in street, Seoul
She was walking out from a beauty shop to meet somebody while having her hair permed. I sketched her instantly with pen when I was waiting for the shuttle bus to swimming center. pen, 15 x 20 cm
In the bus coming home I drew a middle aged man with an umbrella. pencil, 15 x 20 cm
I took a photo using my mobile phone at the bus. It looks fuzzy. The model sat behind the young man at corridor who stood at the moment I finished this drawing fortunately. After taking this photo I had to get off at my bus stop hurriedly holding my umbrella, sack, and this sketchbook on both hands.

The Dongdaemun Design Plaza & Park (DDP) is a large urban development project under construction in Dongdaemun, Seoul. It will contain of a multi-use park, a fashion plaza, an underground mall, and a restoration of a number of items of national heritage. Perhaps it will be completed next year.
I used to sketch this attractive subject several times recently. Owing to the hot weather, I sketched this magnificent structure looking over the window, within air-conditioned buildings on the opposite side.

sketches / pencil & gel pen

a common mart at Naejadong where I found many geometric elements
readers at Kyobo Book Center, 13 x 18 cm sketchbook
Sketching tools were simple such as pen and pencil. Walking down to Gwangwhamun I saw the GC Mart with green awning and green watermelons on cart. Drawing with pen I could feel like that I was making a print work - etching. Large book center provided a good shelter for people to read books in cool space.
