North Point

20 years later in North Point

A lot of things happened 20 years ago: The Spice Girls released Wannabe, Independence Day hit the theaters, and Atlanta, Georgia USA hosted the worst opening ceremony for any Summer Olympics to date. But some good things happened that year: the marriage of two of

Chun Yeung Street – painting

Hot. Very hot. Got so hot that when the  breeze blew by I got chills. From now on all work needs to be done indoors or before lunch. Ok. This painting is of the fruit and meat market on Chun

Quarry Bay Promenade – painting

Another very hazy day. Might as well be foggy. The sun tried to poke through a couple times, but after awhile, quit trying. I arrived at the promenade around 9 this morning in plenty of time to see large groups

Top Of Braemar Hill

I took a trip up to the very top of Braemar Hill today. It’s a rough hike through thick brush and steep terrain, but well worth the effort. For those of you who don’t know how to get up there,

Fortress Hill and North Point

I didn’t get out yesterday because of work deadlines. I felt empty inside: like I forgot breakfast. So it felt good to hit the streets today. I started drawing in Fortress Hill District across the street from a colonial  meat

Causeway Bay & North Point

I spent a good part of the day out running around to the library and shopping, but still made time to do 3 drawings. The first drawing is from the Hong Kong Yacht Club. I haven’t been there in a
