Geylang Serai Malay Village Sketchwalk - Don Low

Malay-Village Museum

Here's my contribution to the blog: A watercolor sketch/ painting of the Malay Village Museum that is going to be taken down for renovation.

The bottom piece was done during the ad-hoc plein air a couple of weeks ago.

August Sketchwalk @ Geylang Serai, 27th Aug 2011

Despite the rain and the presidential voting, about 35 of us turn up to sketch the soon to be demolished Malay Village at Geylang Serai. We also sketched the very festive bazaar near the new Geylang Serai Market before settling down for lunch. Thank you everyone for turning up and for the amazing job you did on Saturday!

I managed 4 quick thumbnail sketches despite having to answer my phone several times to give help to stranded sketchers. The terrible humidity that came after the rain did not help too.

SKETCHWALK AUGUST


Dear sketchwalkers, the upcoming sketchwalk for this month will be at Geylang Serai, this saturday. Some of us did an adhoc sketchwalk there recently, but they didn't cover everything. And some of us could not make it. So now you have one more chance to capture the preparations for the upcoming Hari Raya Puasa.

The sketchwalk leader for this event will be Paul. Please look out for him at the main PAYA LEBAR MRT control station (not the circle line) at 10AM sharp.  We will start later as this will give us time to vote (polling day) before or after the sketchwalk. From there, we will make our way to the area of the malay village and Joo Chiat Shopping Complex. (See map.) We will meet again at 1PM for lunch and "show and tell" (lunch location to be revealed at event) If you can't find us or have any questions, please call Paul 97923622
