DRAWING ON THE SPOT

Class field trip to NUS Art Museum

CW4.11 CW4.10

I feel that I should have drew the face of the man on the right slightly wider. I really like this drawing the moment I saw it therefore I decided to draw it. I really like the lines that the artist have created.

Point to point drawing

What these food represent to me?

A cup of coffee, milk/soya milk, instant noodles and crackers. These are the essentials for me during major examination periods since Secondary 3. Those times when I burned midnight oil to revise, coffee keeps me focused while instant noodles is my life savior when I was hungry during late at night. Milk/soya milk and crackers are some snacks I had during small breaks. These food actually means a lot to me because they have been helping me survive the ordeal of education. No doubt, they will soon accompany me through my four years of university life too.

  • Exciting rock music
  • Sad

  • It was some potato chips.
  • It gives me the “crunchy” feel and also “bumpy” due to the uneven surfaces on the potato chips.

  • What affects your sense the most?

  • Name with 1 word or a sentence what makes you uncomfortable?
  • Make drawing with marks that represent those feelings.

HW1.10

I went to Maxwell Hawker Center and found that the atmosphere is filled with the aroma of delicacies from various stalls. The many different combinations of scent are pleasant, but soon grow to be overwhelming. Furthermore, the place is crowded and noisy, which annoyed me a little.
