Yesterday morning, I joined Seoul sketchcrawl Dec. It was too cold to sketch comfortably, but I could not help drawing untill 12 a.m. on account of my important promise in the afternoon.
I drew several sceneries around Dongdaemun Plaza sitting on a stool in front of Maxtyle shopping center.

Sketching on Dec. 18, 2010

Young staffs were smoking before entering the building in the plaza of Doota Building of Dongdaemun, Seoul.
He was resting a while in the open cafe in front of Doota Building, who wore an advertising band of Monaco Wedding & Buffet on his shoulder.

I sketched the shoe shopes at Dongdaemun, Seoul. Under the electric pole were laid tens pair of shoes at the entrance of Shoe stores of Chunggyechun.

On the bridge over Chunggyechun, I sat on the curb and sketched a man singing hymn. Sketching him and hearing his song repeatedly I became to hum after him.

Jung Un-ja was sketching a portrait of Ramses from Uzbekistan. He was fluent in Korean.

busy engineer

Engineer from KT(Olleh Korea Telecome) was working in front of the entrance of Sejong University. After sketching this I asked what he was doing. He told me that he was pulling internet cable from the near pole.

식물원에서

일요일에 어린이대공원에 다녀왔습니다. 유선생님 생각이 났습니다. 식물원은 변함없는 그대로더군요. 그림은 예전에 식물원에서 그렸던 작은 그림을 2절 수채용지에 옮겨 그린 것입니다.

at the alley of Chosunilbo Gallery

On 2007, I sketched this one in front of Chosun Ilbo(Daily Newspaper) Gallery located near the Anglican Church of Korea, Seoul. The alley is not busy mostly, so good to sketch the church and nunnery, and the scenes with old buildings. (A 4 size, pen and watercolor)

Last Saturday was so cold and strong windy day for November. But Seoul sketchers were deep in urban-sketching all day with patience.
I sketched wandering through the downtown from Kyung-bok Palace to Insa-dong. I'm sure continuous drawing on the surroundings of Gwanghwamun is very useful for Seoul sketchers.

41x13cm, pen and watercolor




It has been mind-boggling that year passes.
In spite of the cold weather, because could paint meeting, it was happy time.
Delicious meal was impressive from atmospherical place.
Had a good time seeing display at Insa-dong.
Is a little inconvenient as do not paint much.
I have received a lot of energies.
