6th Urban Sketching in Sai Kung Sai Kung, the backyard of Hong Kong, was only a barbecue site for me from my childhood memory. During my revisit, the slow vibe of the old market and surroundings became my favourite spot. I also noticed that there are so many hair salons …
5th Urban Sketching in Sham Shui Po It was my first time entering the “Nam Cheong Street Sitting-out Area,” a place I had only passed by on my way to bookstores and exhibitions. Here, Kaifongs and even children can chat, rest, and play, creating an oasis amid the bustling Sham …
