Sherlock Sam installation at The Arts House

Was hired by The Arts House to design a Sherlock Sam installation to be displayed on the lawn outside. At first, I wanted to make a cube with lenticular walls all around. Why lenticular? Because Sherlock Sam is a kid and the science he uses leans toward old-school science, not super high tech stuff. On each wall, a Sherlock Sam character would do something that showed of their respective signature move or reveal something about their character. Kids would be able to see the images change as they ran around. And after that, they could go inside to do some art with Sherlock Sam stamps.

But after the Covid-19 pandemic hit, the design was altered to a more ventilated version. Perhaps it worked better because the interior of the cube would have been an oven. The design was put together by a talented company called The Merry Men Works. I think they did an excellent job.

COVID-19 comics

I'm presently working with NUS Medicine to produce comic educating and informing the public on the latest updates on Covid-19. The series a new comic every 2-3 days. Follow the whole series here: https://nusmedicine.nus.edu.sg/medias/news-info/2233-the-covid-19-chronicles

Due to the tight deadlines and edits for this series. The art was created using Procreate on an iPad Pro.

Sketches at Ghim Moh food centre

This is the food centre near my house. I like the thosai, sugar cane, hokkien prawn mee and curry chicken there. I used to like the chee kway there but after trying it on saturday, I've decided that the one served at Tiong Bahru food centre is way better. The hakka yong tau foo and fried kway teow is also supposed to be good. But I seldom eat from those stalls as they always have a long wait.

This is the fried kway teow stall (right) my dad likes eating at. It's famous and always has a long line. My dad, however gets to cut the line now and then because he has known the chef for so long. He just orders over the side wall. I don't know if he still does that, since he's started eating healthier.
