We “Captured the mood in Gouache” during Saturday’s workshop. The participants were very keen to learn and appreciative of the medium. A memorable and learning experience for me as an instructor as I learnt to keep track of the time, lesson plan, my 45 mins demo and attending to the queries of the participants. Strangely, I forgot to bring my palette(but had pictures to show how my palette looks) and water container, thanks Jenny and Favian for helping me with supplies. I had the wonderful Meg HLeng to assist me. Thanks for all the participants, I’m glad to have contributed in someway for your urbansketching journey! 
Thank you SP Jain School of Management for the support!! 
More great shots by Yuen Kit Mun to come, stay tuned!!

My client who purchased the ” Unconventional upcycled garden” sketch, also commissioned me to do a larger oil painting of her favorite view at Punggol Park. We had a couple of visits to the park and did a pencil study and a Gouache sketch. Later made some modifications to match the light and my client’s preferences. Waiting to start with the oil study 🙂

Week 3- Assignment from Schoolism’s “Landscape Sketching in Watercolor and Gouache”

For 3rd week, Nathan allowed us to use pigments but limited to yellow ochre, venetian red, ultramarine blue, permanent sap green, and van dyke brown. I couldn’t find them here in Sg nor wanted to wait for them if I order online, so substituted with Yellow Ochre, Mars red, ultramarine Blue, Olive green and Raw Umber. These are the ones I could get here close to the suggested pigments. Definitely the end results vary, but a little try than nothing at all.
