Portrait sketching for Singapore Art Festival 2008.

I was being commissioned to sketch all 41 art celebrities who attended the Singapore Art Fest recently. These celebs were from different backgrounds as well as professions such as singer,chef,musician,writer, etc. They were from different countries around this region & the event was held in November 2008.
Although I've not seen it yet, I was being told that my sketches would be printed together with their individual write-ups on the official booklet for this particular event. All the sketches were done from their photos given to me by the client "The Arts House". The medium used was dark pencil on white drawing papers.
Out of 41 sketches, I've chosen 7 of them to be shown on this blog post.
