On MRT Red line, a girl tied her hair as a ball on top of her head sat in front of me, She is pretty, I sketched her carefully because I use crayon instead of charcoal, I couldn't correct it once I failed to catch the contour of her side view. a passenger sat beside, she said "you are very successful in sketching her even I can tell who that you are drawing." I believe the gir who I had drawn listened what we were talking, She turned and smiled to me.

At Starbucks in Neihu RT-Mart

The movie, Inside Llewyn Davis, is talking about a singer who was never successful in his professional career. when he totally failed and ready to give up. He decided to do one thing for his father who was living in nursing house and lost memories for a long time. He played guitar and sang a song once his father could remember something after listening what he played, he thought it's more than everything in the world.

I painted and showed to my mom everytime as I came home. She was not able to walk and talk but she was generous to give me a "like" by showing her thumb up. I guessed what I painted was her whole world.

Sketching in Starbucks

I am not good enough to sketch the live figure, but I still love it very much. Normally I failed to finish them who was being painted and then they changed gestures. Anyway, I am practicing every time when I go to coffee shop. People are elegant and quiet when they are reading or talking which make me easy to observer them.

A small temple worship the god of earth hides in the community. Since I was born, the temple had been there for a long time. People comes here to burn paper money for the gods and ancestors frequently. Because of the neighbors' protests of the air pollution, the temple mounts a 18 meter stove pipe to exhaust the smoke.
