night sketchwalk sketches



Night sketchwalk. Rangoon Rd. Ink on paper with photoshop colour enhancements.
So we didn't make it to race course rd in the end. And we didn't see a wayang. But it was great to see what we ended up with from just a simple street corner that wouldn't have stood out as fascinating on any normal day or night.

  7. Thanks. I did them all in black ink wash. So for the middle one, I made the contrasts more intense in photoshop and used a layer set to "overlay" to add touches of colour to the washes. And this is what you get.

  8. The bleakness in the second piece really captures the feel of that place.
