Event: FY2010 IBM Business Partner Appreciation Evening.
Date of event: 24 Nov 2010 (Friday).
Venue: Arena at Clarke Quay Singapore.
Duration: 6.00pm to 8.00pm (2 hours).
Average drawing speed: 3 minutes per head.
My tattoo artist friends Ivan & Lee Lee got me to do this event that required roving service. I activated the speedy mode of an average of 3 minutes per head drawn so that I didn't have to stay too long at a spot to avoid tiredness on my legs. At times I had to squat down to draw those guests who were sitting on sofas. Compared to my usual events which I sit & draw, it was quite tiring. Also, the standard of my drawing was not as high as my usual events simply because of the roving nature as well as the speed at which I drew. Honestly, I do not like to do roving service as it would more or less affect the quality of my work. Apart from that, my tools keep dropping onto the floor & I may have to do extra work to pick them up. What an irritation...
After the 2 hour session, I stayed back to watch the stage show which was quite interesting especially when the emcee fooling around with the guests.
