Caricature live sketching for Avaya, Radiance Communications and Singtel

3 hours event (6:30pm-9:30pm) at Upper Club, CHIJMES.
Used the paper with their company logos on it, prepared by Radiance.

Think this event was to celebrate the achievement of good results of Radiance Communications , Avaya and Singtel partnership.

Kicked off with this bushy eyebrows gentleman.

Easy-to-draw features - round face, short chin, 2 prominent moles.

Looked good to me A good start!

He wanted to check his email with his Blackberry while I was sketching him. Seems like his job/interest whenever he was free.

Told him if he looked down while I was sketching him, his caricature will be looking down.
Think that posture was not what he wanted. He stopped and look up. Hahaha.....

Inetrval as the VIPs are giving speeches. Took some photos of this environment.

Noticed that they didn't hire any professional photographer to shoot for their event.

Saw one of them using those consumer type foolproof digital camera snapping around.
So my Nikon D80 looked a bit 'loud' among them.

See this unique ceiling decorations. Looked like falling knifes to me.
Thought they were steel plates.
After examining for some time, I think they could be made of silver cloth or paper type of material, as they swayed a bit in this air-conditioned club.

After about 20 minutes of VIPs speech, this gentleman grabbed his chance to be the first one to have his caricature sketched.

See? She's back, claiming that all her friends and colleagues said that that caricature didn't look like her, except for the mole. Was it? Then draw the mole can liao. One dot on the paper? She laughed. Maybe I was too lenient in previous drawing. This round, I don't hold back much. Played up more on her mouth and teeth. Added in a cigarette on her lips upon her request. And she was very happy. She said that was the one which was missing. She looked too good in previous caricature. Got such people one meh?!

She said this caricature looked very much like her, even when I was sketching her halfway, and upside down. Was it? Not chance to reverse it and see.

She wanted a sexy good looking body. Gave her a nice bust line, and she was so happy with it.

She doesn't want to include her eyebags, claiming that she didn't sleep well the night before.
Will it be that bad without good sleep overnight?
Told her won't look that close to her, but she said nevermind.
Luckily still turned out good.
