Date of event: 4 July 2008 Fri.
Venue: Crystal Jade Dining Place Restaurant,IMM,Jurong Singapore.
Duration: 1 hour (7.45pm to 8.45pm).
This was the first time I did an event that required me to draw only one person on the spot in colour.The purpose of the caricature was meant as a surprise retirement gift for a senior staff of Exxonmobil Singapore.A 3-table dinner was attended by colleagues from his dept.When I reached the private room,everybody has been seated.I looked around & felt that it was extremely difficult to draw as he was chatting happily with everybody & kept moving about.So I suggested to the client that it's better for me to take a picture of the subject & draw from my laptop screen at a separate table as I've come prepared.My suggestion was also to let him continue to enjoy himself without disruption.The caricature took a longer time than usual for me to complete simply b'cos I was not used to the arrangement & environment.
After completion of the artwork,the client handed me with a picture frame which she brought along.Together,we put everything in place before being officially presented to him,the retiring man.
