Time Wasted, Money Wasted Job
Most of the time I do not like to take any caricature drawing by order, I emphasizing on doing live drawing during event booking,this is because such drawing was time consuming and it could be a risk to get rejected due to client having their own standard or preferences.
Just like this job I did yesterday, an event company asked for help and I thought just do it since I had did for them few times, even though they only call my for this once a year.
Client asked the person being drawn in Maradona's football attire and hair style, I had told them if I change the hairstyle of the photo given from client, the output result might not be acceptable by them, (because most of the clients may not have professional artistic visual level) they might not feel it will looks alike of the photo given, moreover sometime the photo given could be real big different from the current look of the real person (the photo could be taken by many years ago).
The event people in charge asked me to go ahead to draw Maradona's hair on this bald hair guy.
Yup! they rejected my drawing as what i predicted.
Checked with my caricaturists friends, checked with my art director friends, checked with my 3D animator friends, their comments was my drawing looks alike with the photo given; our conclusion: Client unable to accept the bald hair person being draw with different hair style!
OUCHII!!
1. Got Zero cents although I had spent 2 hours to search Maradona's photo, and also need to get approval from client.
2. Spend few hours to art shops to get the suitable board(Cost S$11 ++) to be mount
3. Spent of the good quality water color paper (cost S$9 ++)
4. Spent on Transport fees
5. Spent 4 hours to draw
6. Spent 1 hour to do the mounting and stick cover paper
Would not take in any such job in future except double the price and full non-refundable deposit before I start any move!
Hiak! HiaK!

Event at Punggol
Phew! Finally I completed this large size group caricature drawing at home for many days 
and filled up the rest of the space of the drawing for Punggol's community event, which proposed and arranged by the event company.
Due to the large of this drawing, I had to arrange my house’s furniture for the working space! Ouchi!
The organizer got the ministers write something on the drawing. (which done by me! Hiak Hiak!)
Faces of Punggol and I! Hiak Hiak!

Super Skillful Chicken Rice Hawker
There are few nice chicken stalls at the Hawker Centre of Ang Mo Kio St 52.
One of the chicken rice stall was having a “Special Visual” which the master was using his super quick cutting method to cut the chicken for the chicken rice, whether during normal or peak hour, the master still using his super quick cutting skill to cut the chicken for the chicken rice.
From the photo you can tell their chicken rice is very nice!

Event at Orchard Central
Just completed a private product launch event at Orchard Central Mall. I just produced a fashion related drawing based on the theme required.
Thought I did not go Orchard Road for quite sometime, seems many new shopping central had been opened. Unfortunately, I did not have much time to shop around for the time being.
Had my dinner at Food Republic foou court at Somerset 313, a shopping mall on th\op of Somerset MRT station. the food was quite big.
There are beverages servers selling drinks in a roving way by the 2 wheels electric vehicls which we saw in the movies! That was interesting!
My "Nasi Padang".
and my "Chinese fried Dumpling"
