Am I the only ambidextrous artist in Singapore for the time being? Yup, I am the only ambidextrous caricaturist, the person who using both hands to draw in Singapore so far.
I am not the only ambidextrous who doing art in Singapore, see this guy, he is a Singaporean, I know him few years ago. He uses two hands to do his calligraphy as well!
I am not the only “Jumper”, there are someone else, hope won’t meet Samuel L.Jackson who like to kill the Jumper in the “Jumper” movie, haahaa!
As an ambidextrous caricaturist, I do caricature drawing since 1990 in Singapore. Einstien from Norway is the pioneer caricaturist with certain years before me, then follow by Eric Ng, Saik, Poon Ee Way whose were my senior. Chong Jit Leong, which known having shop at Yishun area doing full time portrait and caricature around that time as well if not wrong. Not much people doing caricature for events fringe art during that period. Nowadays, more than 22 active caricaturists in the industry.

Roaming Event Artist
In some event, some artist required roaming or mobile around to do their performance to entertain the guest, caricaturist and silhouette artist wan unable to avoid it! I even did a roaming palm reading as a fortune teller in an event before!
In my 14 years event artist experiences, I realized one the number 101 thing must be do it nicely, which is the posture while you doing the drawing or silhouette cutting or reading the fortune of the guests: You must be always standing in a nice way, do not hunch your back especially, do not believe you are so great that everyone always give way to you; like if you are in the restaurants, sometimes some people just passing by between you the guests you being entertained; worst still, some waiter/waitress might even accidentally hit you and pour the drinks on you shirt!
Hence, being a roaming entertainer, you might need to always taking care the surrounding environment while you doing your job. That’s not easy, and it needs to spend more energy to pay some attention on it.
I would say, not much caricaturist or silhouette artist willing to roam around to entertain the guests; because it was quiet difficult to handle the environment while you spent your energy and time in the drawing or cutting the silhouette, hence, it could be quiet tiresome; moreover, it could be reduced your quality of drawing or performance it you re not use to it.

Better Food!
I was surprised that can get this “Special offer breakfast set” in S$2.00 !! That’s was very nice. This shop can be found at Ang Mo Kio Central.
This lunch at the hawker centre, increased from S$2.50 to $2.70 liao! Still feel good because the dishes and the rice size still in big size, compared with my yesterday’s Nasi Lemak. Thought basically, everything price increased could be partly because the shop rental’s increasing.Leave me in peace, I am no interesting in and politics or competitions, just wanted to eat and then sleeps like this fat cats! If you wanted to win, you won, please put me in your “top loser” list. Haahaa!
