caricatures for everyone!
HUGE CROWD at the RRFM!

Two weeks ago, the Post Museum had its 4th Really Really Free Market. Jennifer, the curator, had always encouraged me to go during our SinQSA meetups. After my first try at caricaturing live the previous week, I figured it would be a great chance to practise and get my drawing times down.

Things started off quite [...]

happy100throdge&serene

Brian, Sam’s good friend and regular tennis mate, wrote me mid last month to caricature his old friend from school, Rodge. He and his friends had successfully matched him to Serene recently, and apparently the two had hit it off right from the get-go. Brian felt it’d be nice to have a funny drawing to [...]

me trying to draw chou hui...

Earlier this week I got an email from a colleague whose friend, Michelle, was looking for people to volunteer their services to raise funds for autism concern in tandem with a European cycling trip (hur hur, get it? tandem? cycling?… never mind).
While I was really excited for the opportunity, I was also terribly nerve-wracked since [...]

aaaaaaand she scooooooooooooooores!

Vidya was the third of Laura’s March-baby friends I drew (the first two being Joel and Thushara). Apparently, she plays for the NTU soccer team and is a “crazy Manchester United fan”. I don’t know anything about soccer, but I gotta tell you, it seems that the Singaporean population is split cleanly into a) Man-U [...]

enrique

Denise wrote me a week ago, saying that her boss Enrique was leaving Singapore and her colleagues wanted to give him a caricature as a farewell gift. It was such a pleasant surprise to hear from her – we first got to know each other through our webcomics several years back, when I think we [...]

Thushara, she of the Spongebob

After drawing Laura’s friend Joel (“the basketball fanatic”), I moved on to Thushara, her best friend since secondary school.
While Thushara also used to be a basketball player back in school, I’d already chosen to present Joel as the basketballer. Instead, I conveniently seized on Laura’s description of “still watches Spongebob Squarepants” (note how I take [...]

Ming Yi, Material Monk

The venerable Ming Yi has been in the news of late for all the wrong reasons. To be honest, I wasn’t much interested in the case until the Straits Times revealed that he owned ten gold credit cards from various banks, had a taste for luxury goods, and routinely stayed at six-star hotels. He justified [...]

Joel does a slam dunk!

My friend’s colleague, Laura, asked if I could do caricatures of her four good friends as birthday presents. They’re all March babies, and Laura planned to present the caricatures to them on the same occassion.
Apparently Joel is a huge NBA fan – he used to play basketball for his school, and even has a tattoo [...]

edison chen: say cheese!

Since I drew Cecilia Chung a few weeks back, I figured I might as well do one of Edison Chen as well (including a strategically placed signboard, tee hee hee. I am so mature.)
Hope you like it!

Cecilia Chung ponders her ABC lifestyle

Just a quick sketch of poor Cecilia Chung, as inspired by today’s Straits Times article.
I mean, sex photos of celebrities being flooded on the internet?

Really, who’da thunk it?!?!
Honestly though (although I can’t figure out what on earth she’s wearing in the photo) – I feel for her.

Titus & Evelyn

I met Evelyn and Titus in college, when they were doing their Masters together. After coming back to Singapore, me and Evelyn bumped into each other again at Chaoyang School’s Open House where both of us were representing our respective companies who had “adopted” Chaoyang as our official charities.
Anyway, recently they got married, and after [...]

bela-waifong_forwebsmall1

My Uncle Bela and Auntie Wai Fong are in town right now and they let me have a go at doodling them!

I think the sketch really tickled them because they burst into laughter, and then, asked me to show it to my cousin in London (hi Jolan!)
After giving them the pencil sketch, I went home, [...]

Jaziar & Terje

When Terje dropped me a note on Facebook to say he was a Bobbin! fan, I promptly did some Facebook stalking and found some really sweet pictures of him and his wife, Jaziar.

Thankfully they gave me the permission to post up my sketch.
Glad you guys liked it!

Madam Valli

Madam Amutha Valli tried to sue a church in Singapore for performing exorcism rites on her. The court threw the case out and now she’s saddled with a huge bill to lawyers on both sides.
I have no idea whether she was really possessed, just insane, or perhaps trying to BS everyone, but seeing her so [...]

Dr Chua Thia-Eng

Dr Chua is an expert on Integrated Coastal Management. Ok, I didn’t know what that was either, which was why I was at his talk. I just couldn’t resist the urge to doodle him!

After I got back home and googled for pictures, I realised Dr Chua looks quite different when up-close than from 15 metres [...]

Lui Tuck Yew

The internet has disappointed our Senior Minister of State for Information, Communication, and the Arts, Mr Lui Tuck Yew, for not being an “effective, self-regulated regime”.
I just wanted to poke a little bit of fun at him (or rather, MICA) because, well, I don’t think anyone else expects the internet to be fair in the [...]
