Us Urban Sketchers need to eat too! We thought we’d try something different this time and organise a “sketch eat” . Some sketchers had never tried yum cha before and quite a few follow me on facebook and often see my foodie posts of me and my parents. I picked my favourite yum cha restaurant , […]
Urban Sketchers Perth : The Old Perth Observatory
The original Perth Observatory was today’s sketch meet for Urban Sketchers Perth on this brisk and fresh Spring September morning. Constructed in 1896 and was officially opened in 1900 by John Forrest, the first Premier of Western Australia. The observatory is located at Mount Eliza (near our iconic Kings Park) overlooking the city of Perth. […]
Good Fortune with My Mum & Dad
I take my elderly parents out to lunch once a week during the weekdays and a day on the weekend. I say lunch but it’s usually an entire day of activities for them. It’s about creating memories and moments for them. Both mum and dad are open to any cuisine but because of their Singaporean […]
Bubbles of Happiness : Sketching in Kings Park
Oh how I love bubbles! To me happiness is bubbles . So when a dear friend of mine asked me for a bubble date I excitedly accepted. My side plan …….was to blow bubbles and sketch (although my friend is a bubble blower not a sketcher) We both agreed Kings Park was the best […]

Going for a dip in Winter! Which is what it is right now. But that would be crazy! ….maybe a little too invigorating for […]
Going Green in Northbridge Piazza
My fingers were freezing, why I chose to sketch outdoors whilst I waited for my elderly parents to have their hour massage is baffled me. I did have second thoughts, but I really wanted to take the opportunity to do a standing sketch (every possible place to sit was wet due to the rain we […]
Urban Sketching Adventures in Wolf Lane
For our monthly Perth Sketchers meet up I decided that Wolf Lane would be the place to visit. There’s so many laneways in Perth that have been “funktified” (is that a word? I don’t know sounds good though). Not a huge laneway but interesting in that there’s little cafes and bars that have been re-established […]
5 Tops Reasons to Rock Climb : A Beginner’s Perspective
I haven’t been able to climb since injuring my shoulder. I’m very much a novice when it comes to rock climbing but I thought I would give the upcoming boulder competition a go at the strong “encouragement” of the instructors and other parents. So after much procrastination and hesitation I jumped on the bouldering wall […]

These ladies are exceptionally talented exhibiting artist, ranging from realism painting to, whimsical naive, abstract, mixed media, semi abstract and still life, and heaps of fun. We visited quite a few galleries whilst in Margaret River […]
