Spent 8 hours last night rendering my sketch digitally for OIC Singapore Anniversary.
Completed and submitted at 7am in the morning.
I turned my A2 pencil drawing (which I did for Drawing Essentials Module) into a digital painting. I always wonder how it would look with colours, and I was dying to use my wacom tablet at the same time.
I did a short course on digital painting at Eggstory Digital Arts School in March with some cash which i won from a Art Competition that I participated in while I was in ITE.
In my opinion that course was 'Money well spent'.
I was always interested in digital painting and received a Wacom tablet last year on my 21st Birthday from my dearest cousin Tiffany and her mum to encourage my passion and studies.
I am also inspired by famous wood painter Audrey Kawasaki. She hand painted her illustrations on wood!
So I decided to give my illustration a 'wooden background'
But instead of hand painting, I painted mine digitally with my wacom tablet.
The best part about doing things digitally is the fact that you can 'undo' your mistakes, whereas there is no undoing for traditional paintings. But I still prefer traditional art over digital.
Decided to name my work 'i-inspiration' because it depicts my ideas, interest and inspirations emerging/exploding from my head, from weird to quirky stuff.
Basically their spelling starts with an 'i' thus i-inspiration.
I did not get any sleep, after submitting my files to OIC, I prepared and left for Paya Lebar mrt station to meet the Urban Sketchers together with Noel and GuiTing for Sketchwalk at Joo Chiat
We walked down Joo Chiat Road while keeping our eyes peeled for interesting things/buildings to sketch.
It was a very sunny and hot this morning, I only did one sketch due to the fatigue from staying up all night and walking down Joo Chiat under the hot sun. I really wish I had the energy to do at least one more.

Great use of colours and good choice of position and perspective.
