Caricature live sketching for GE Healthcare MI Symposium

This client commissioned me to do a caricature live sketching job last year (but working in a different company now), at the same venue - Equinox, Level 69, Raffles City Tower.
She has too many guest (all over the world) caricatures for me to complete within 3 hours.
Thus, I have to get one more caricaturist, Reggie to help out.

Can't miss his bunny teeth.
He wanted a Chinese name for himself.

Didn't see his eyes closed when snapping this photo. Should have checked.

Only give me his big smile when I snapped this photo, as he told me that he can't smile for long.

No guest queing behind him.
All having dinner.
Thus, I spent more time on his cariicature.
Gave him a swing golf posture.

This guy can really smile, and holds his smile throughout the 5 minute sketch.
He told me his job requires him to smile most of the time....Hahaha.... just like mine when I am sketching them. Can't show the guest your grouchy or serious look.

Without knowing the ink was not fully dried up, he inserted it into the plastic bag.
That goes the artwork.
This photo will be his only copy left.

Saw this view (before the event started) from the other side of Equinox, which I didn't see last year.
Snapped them for fun.

Feedback from the client (via email), after the event:-
"Thanks, Jit.

Great job at our event! Our guests are really happy with their caricatures. I think it's something they appreciate more than the usual corporate gifts given out at such events.

Best Regards
siaosze "
