Steamed Pork Belly with Home Made Sauce

Just bought some pork belly and did it in steamed way for today.I cut the pork belly in about few cm per piece and pour some teriyaki sauce for a while then deep fry in hot oil until golden brown, then put them in a plate and pour some cold water to wash the meat. Then I pour in the home made sauce which contained garlic, onion, gingers, 1 stick 2-3cm cinnamon stick, 2 star anise, then a teaspoon of oyster sauce, Kikkoman soy sauce, ‘Hua Diao’ wine, a small piece of soya bean curd, sugars with some water. (the quantity would depend how heavy of the taste you like it to be)I just used my indution cooker steamed it in 200C degree for 1 hours (you can try 1-2 hours)to get it done, the meat will became soften, especially the fat portion of the pork belly will be taste great instead of the oily feel, I guest because of the effect of the long steam process.Just fry a long vegetable ‘Chye Sim’ from Cameron, Malaysia for one more dish of the day.

Two hand’s Calligraphy

I am the one who use two hands to draw in Singapore, or I am one of the artist who draw using two hands (because nowadays could be more and more artist using two hands to draw in Singapore), then this calligrapher was much more better then all of us. Look! He can use his leg to grab the calligraphy brushes to write, one hand holding 2 calligraphy brushes to write and having lots more special writing unique skills!That’s what I talking about. This calligrapher is Mr Tan, sometimes you can see him doing busking at Ang Mo Kio Central area.

Drawing Caricature Using Two Hands

Just did an event at Sentosa this morning, one of the guests told me he came across a female caricaturist using doing her caricature using two hands drawn in marker as well. That was not my first time hearing someone else using two hands to draw in recent years. Talking about drawing caricature using two hands in Singapore, I am very sure to say I am the first person who doing it in the events since 1990 till now.As an ambidextrous, I did not feel special proud or can be arrogant some sort, because drawing or writing using two hands, just a very common matters, as common as like this world having twins, those people who having 6 fingers in each of their hands etc.Anyone also can be draw or write using both hands simultaneously as long as they willing to train themselves.

Anyway, I will be very proud and very arrogant once I successful to train myself using my foot or whatever other body parts to hold a pen to draw. Heehee!

Nothing to be surprise that during recent years, more and more caricaturists join the events and entertainment industry, more and more artists copy each others and became much more competitive in the limited market in Singapore. Hence, sooner or later, you will seeing many ‘two handed’ caricaturists in Singapore or it could made Singapore became ‘The most Caricaturists Drawn using two hands in the World’ haahaa!

People who can draw or write using their both hands at the same time, I think should be 30% or more in our whole world’s population, definitely not only 1% existing in this world, haahaa!

End of the day, the quality and the originality creation of the artwork is the most important criteria being a professional.

Doing Event in Costume

Except Chinese cultural theme related event like Chinese paper cutting or fortune telling, I seldom wear a special costume do my caricature or silhouette cutting during event, unless the costume was subsidies by event company or client.

Basically, I still wear a vest and artist hats with or without suspender, which is the basic event caricaturist or silhouette cutting artist’s professional attire.

Few years ago, I wear a vest for every of my event booking, then recently I wear artist hat for my event. More and more caricaturist wears hats while doing their events recent years. I am not the first one who wear hats doing events, I remember the first person I saw who wear his red colour artist hats during event is Eric Ng in about at least 12 years ago. Anywhere, the pioneer caricaturist Einstein in Singapore is an artist who never wear hat while doing his show in my memory (thought he wear colourful costume instead).
