Last thursday I met two of my favourite Urban Sketchers from Singapore: Tia Boon Sim and Paul Wang. We had dinner in the University Club restaurant, we showed our drawings, and exchanged experiences. It was great to see the beautiful drawings of Tia and Paul in reality; like so often, they are so much better in real life than on the screen.
They also showed me some tricks, like using the calligraphy fountainpen Hero 501-1 (which I managed to buy the next day) and splashing random colour splashes on paper as preparation for an Urban sketch.
I learned a lot, and will try to use it in my own work. Afgelopen donderdagavond had ik een ontmoeting met twee Singapore Urban sketchers: Tia en Paul Wang. Het was geweldig mede USK-ers te ontmoeten en ervaringen uit te wisselen.

Great! I can imagine it was nice and interesting to meet them!
leuk lijkt me dat!!!groet marian
Heb je ook tekeningen uitgewisseld?
Super that you got to meet them, Rene!
Yes it was very interesting indeed. Funny, through their drawings and texts you seem to know them a little, it's so good to meet them in real life.
Geert-Jan, we didn't exchange drawings, most of our drawings are stuck in notebooks. On second thought: would have been a nice idea!
