Sketch 1

For the first sketch, my initial idea was to draw scenery situated near Bayfront which includes the Marina Bay Sands, Gardens by the Bay and the ArtScience Museum.

Sketch 2

For the second sketch, my idea developed into a vast aspect of tourism in Singapore. The bus signifies public transport, showing that it is readily accessible and is able to bring us to almost everywhere in Singapore. In addition to the tourist attraction in the first sketch, other sceneries such as Universal Studios were included as well.

Final Piece

For the Final drawing, it is a more comprehensive idea from the second sketch. More tourist attractions such as Botanic Gardens were added in. The public transport was changed from bus to MRT. Most importantly, the tourist attractions were situated on a sardine can – displaying the idiom packed like sardines.

Tourism is definitely an important economic source for Singapore. It has affected me both positively and negatively. One positive aspect would be the advancement in transportation – offering greater convenience and flexibility traveling around. However, with the bustling of tourists in the country, it seems that Singapore is overcrowding in these attractions which is represented by the sardine can.
