Mid Autumn Chinese Paper Cutting

Just taken few hours to do research and spend few hours again to reproduce a Chinese paper cutting design that suits for the Mid Autumn Festival Theme.
The flower design was from clip art and the text and overall design and layout out was was by my own idea.

I spent about 4 hours to cut this 5 pieces stack of red paper artwork. The reason to stack 5 pieces paper to cut out the artwork because it able to produce 5 pieces art pieces at a time. The reason for 5pieces stacked of paper to be cut at a time is because based on normal human's hand strength, it was the reasonable thickness of the papers to be cut at a time by human hand.

Chinese Paper is a time consuming item. Hence, for fringe events activity wise, it was hard to produce on the spot like caricature drawing or silhouette cutting and etc.
I think Chinese paper cutting was one of the tough item for fringe activity, because it need really long hours to do the preparation if you demand on the quality.

Event at Hong Lim Park Singapore

Under the arrangement by event company, I did an hour's caricature drawing for the guest in the event yesterday.

Long time did not go to this area and found that there are a large shelter had been built and had a new building down there as well.

There are huge inflatable projector movie screen in the event.

Singapore's National Day was near, and great to see these helicopters passing by us for the National Day Celebration rehearsal.

Roving Caricature in Block Party

Did roving caricature drawing in a block party last week.
To do caricature in a roving style, need some different technique, basically you need to know how to handle the crowd and also depend what kind of crowd in the event.

Donna Daniel and her dancers was performing on the stage. Donna was very famous in the event industry and had been many years in the industry as well.

My friend and I was thinking to go IKEA in Johor Bahru as per viewed the info from internet, we had taken sometime to find out the place and realized that there wasn't any IKEA in JB (Johor Bahru), maybe some sort of reason that cause the set up terminated. Below was the skeleton building we believed could be IKEA that nest to Jusco Tebrau and Tesco Tebrau ;p
