Caricature live sketching for Institute of Estate Agents 9th Dinner & Dance

An hour event at Grand Copthorne Waterfront.
Institute of Estate Agents - seems like I did live sketching for them previously.
Searched through my record on my blog. Wah! Really!
That was last year. Same event company too!
And I drew that chairman too!

The chairman. He asked me whether I can start at 6:24pm (should be starting at 6:30pm)
Bad luck that day, as the ink in my bag was not closed tightly. All spilled out, and I have to clear the mess. Told him that I will be starting in a few minutes' time, but need to clean up my ink bottle at least.

A very observant guy. He can tell from the way I tilted my fountain pen to achieve different thickness of the lines. Think he's the first one to do so.

My first impression of this guy was his face was really good for caricature.
Crew top, knife-shaped eyebrow, small eyes, thick lips and pear-shaped face.

She asked me not to draw her face too round, but that was the shape of her face.
The first thing I drew in was a round circle, and a pointed chin.
Her colleagues can tell the resemblance from my pencil sketch alone.

This pear-shaped face scared him off.
" Is my face so round? Must cut on diet already."

Her mum was so worried that this little girl won't get her chance to get her caricature done. She will be very disappointed. Think they were overjoyed when I told them that she will the last one before I stopped. The time left was just nice to have her caricature done.
