A monk visiting the place asked him to draw on his fan.

The artist drew with acrylics with pleasure and presented it to him.

The monk was pleased with the drawing so much.

What a pleasure sketching together at a nice place is always! Today was just like that. I went with my mother after my father's death last Monday. She needed rest and to forget the sorrow for a while. I thank for the kindness of Seoul sketchers and Mr. Mrs. Kopp to my mother. They'll leave Korea within days. Of course we promised to meet and sketch together whenever they come to Korea. Thank you all!

Sketches by Sang-Hee Moon at Soongshil University

Thank you, Ms.Yoo and Mr. Lee, another great sketch session. It was a hot day, even though there weren't many trees or shades nearby to protect from the summer heat, the campus was full of great energy. There was even a student group, climbing the walls of the campus, doing jumping, handstands, and so on. The music building to the side was called Ahn Ik Tae, the composer of the national anthem, was interesting with many different patterns/shapes, which I didn't get to sketch, but made the campus more lively. All in all, it was a good day. Looking forward to the next meetup/sketch session!!!

Sketching with Stephen Kopp from Australia

Mr. Stephen Kopp from Sydney, Australia visited Korea again. He has been sketching together with us for years whenever he comes to Korea with his wife Susie. Last Saturday, June 2nd, 2012 he joined us at Soongsil University. He usually paints using acrylics on canvas. This time he drew the scenery at the entrance of the campus.

We thank him and his wife for participating in sketching as often as he can. Tomorrow, Thursday, we try to sketch the beautiful Unhyeongung located at Unni-dong near Insadong. Hope you to come and sketch if you can. See you tomorrow!

Soongsil University is a private Christian university, which was founded in 1897, is now located at Dongjak-gu, Seoul. The Soongsil University campus is surrounded by residential buildings including apartment complex, but the overall composition of the campus is well designed and naturally harmonized with the surrounding environment.

I sketched several buildings sequentially from the main gate to the central plaza at the top of a small rise in front of the Student Hall. The weather was so fine, we sketchers had a delightful time at the neat and lovely campus with a history.
