First Exhibition Visit

I can't really remember the exact date, but it was definitely the first exhibition visit our class had since school started. 
It was during 2D Fundamentals class. We went to a small exhibition at Singapore Arts Museum, which was about 10-15 min walk away from school! :-)

The hall was pretty small but the exhibited works there were interesting.
I heard from our lecturer that some of the works are done by NAFA students.


The exhibition have already ended.

From the picture, i think that this work was done using markers and pens.
It is a well-done work because the artist was able to show the shadows and draw out the fine details just by using a black pen.
I think that the artist would have taken quite a while to complete this because the work has to been done neatly as it is a cartoon drawing.



The 2 pictures above are paper works.
Paper works need a lot of time and effort because the proportion has to be precise and accurate.
Anyone who wants to do paper work will need to have patience.






Above works done in black ink were the most interesting part of the exhibition.
Also, it took up most of the space in the exhibition hall, which shows the quality of the work.
The drawing done on the floor connects to the chairs, tables, and the papers that were laid out together.
The title of this work was 'DROP EVERYTHING AND DOODLE', which clearly shows in the work itself. 
The work consisted of drawings that looked like doodles.
However, though it could just be considered as a 'doodle' by some people, i personally think that the doodles formed up a eye-catching work.
Despite the artwork done in black and white, it does attract the eyes of people because of its size and creativity.



This artwork was put up with drawings of a woman in different types of masks or headbands representing different ideas.
The work was done by pen.
I think that the artist would have taken a long time doing this work as it would have been time consuming to draw the features of the face to look similar to each other.
Although there could have been other ways of drawing out the face, the work needs accuracy to complete it without flaws.


Among the drawings, this was my favourite because it looks feminine with the roses on the head.

All in all, i think that this exhibition was a great in a way that it gave us ideas and inspirations for future use when doing our assignments.
