After sketching some at the Myungdong Cathedral Church I visited the Pyunghwa Gallery in Catholic Center. I could see the SHONA exhibition(Aug. 10 - Aug. 23). Exhibited works from Zimbabwe were really great.  Hope you to visit there if possible. I took some photos for reference.

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.

the buildings are simple in style, but something attractive.

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.
