83-2614 - Manila Catheral

This is the first sketch I did after the initial talk of Enrique Flores at the ICM workshop on Saturday. Enrique gave us 40 tips on sketching, one of which was about including people to give a sense of scale – so I deliberately included the crowds outside the Cathedral. For a change I also masked off the edges of this sketch before painting (instead of using a wobbly line)…got to get some washi…

83-2615 - Charles IV King of Spain

Here is the second sketch I did after the initial talk of Enrique Flores at the ICM workshop last Saturday. This statue in the Plaza de Roma, in front of Manila Cathedral, was originally erected in 1824 (and later reinstated in 1981) to honour Charles IV of Spain having sent the first batch of smallpox vaccine to the Philippines. In my sketch the king looks like he’s about to fall off his…

83-2613 - Instituto Cervantes

Here is the first sketch I did when I joined the “Intramural” workshop with Enrique Flores in Intramuros. I had expected bad traffic and difficulty parking (neither of which happened), so I set off really early, and ended up with time to do this sketch of the ICM building, before things began. During the workshop Enrique mentioned that your first sketch is often not so successful…so I am counting…

1081 – Slender building Here is my last sketch from the Dia del Libro event last Saturday. There was quite a big earthquake in Manila a short while ago - it must have been extra scary for anyone living in this building. Sat-27-Apr-2019
