Window Illustration for Marni

I had thought that drawing live on the front window of the Marni store would probably be one of the most daunting things I would have to do. But I was pleasantly surprised that it wasn’t at all but instead had enjoyed the entire process tremendously. Despite the fact that it was all done within the span of 5 days - from conceptualising to execution! Yes, it was all a whirlwind! I got the ok to proceed in the morning and I was down at the store drawing by mid afternoon to draw my first 2 girls!

The window illustration was inspired by Marni’s Pre-Fall 2019 Collection featuring their signature experimental mix of prints and shapes. 

Huge thanks to the amazing Club21 team for trusting me with my ideas and especially for the cool timelapse clip. 

Live Fashion Portraits at Chopard’s Private Event

Always a pleasure drawing the guests of one of my favourite clients. Other than doing what I love most, drawing, at these live Illustration sessions, , I always look forward to the interesting conversations with the people I meet. I am quite capable of drawing and painting and my eyes on the paper in front of me at the same time while still having a chat about fashion and art (of course!), music, travel and even C-dramas. Anything, as long as it is not politics and finance!

Live Fashion Portraits for Bvlgari Parfums Omnia Collection

This has got to be one of the most fun projects that I have done. From designing the concept of featuring each of the Special Edition Bvlgari Parfums Omnia Candy Collection as a delicious treat to live illustrating customers, it has been one sweet experience. . 

To further enhance the delightful sensory experience of the Bvlgari Omnia Candy Collection, I designed and illustrated the four perfumes as four different sweet treats to be savoured at Bvlgari’s Italian pasticceria pop-up store.

Four girls were illustrated enjoying these delicious confections while depicting the joy, pleasure and exuberance of these fragrances.

Join me as we indulge in a whimsical world of colourful eye candies and sweet smelling fragrances. The Limited Edition Omnia Candy Collection is pure pleasure for the senses. Yum! 

Live Fashion Illustration at The MU/SE Society X Longines Private Event

It was such a delight to illustrate some of the lovely ladies at the recent THE MU/SE SOCIETY X LONGINES private event. 

When Longines asked for blue flowers to be designed and featured with the illustrations of their guests at the recent THE MU/SE SOCIETY X LONGINES event, I couldn’t be happier. Blue is their brand colour and my favourite hue too.

I had painted the monochrome flowers in watercolour in such a way that they look transparent and almost glass-like to reflect Longines’ DNA of timeless elegance.

Huge thanks to the Longines Team for entrusting me with the entire design process and for having me as part of this wonderful event. 

Live Fashion Illustration at The Ritz-Carlton “Pret-a-Porter” Easter Brunch

When I was invited to illustrate live at The Ritz-Carlton’s Easter Brunch which has a theme of “Pret-a-Porter”, I was expecting to be drawing a lot of fashionable guests. And yes, I was right..okay...half right...I ended up drawing a lot of kids who are no less stylish than their parents! And of course, I do get some special requests too. I drew a baby rabbit and 2 unicorns. My “reward” for going off-theme?  3 Golden Chocolate Easter Eggs!!

And this is Chef Benjamin, the very first chef that I illustrated. Think I would need go back there one day soon to try his madeleines dipped in chocolate that he highly recommended.

Live Portrait at Ruby and Noby’s Wedding

What a delight it was to be part of the celebration of love at the wedding of Ruby and Noby at The Clifford Pier. Drawing all the beautiful (and equally dashing) guests in this magnificent venue doesn’t really seemed like work, even if it was more than 6 hours of non-stop drawing past midnight.

I just had to paint this on the spur of moment when I saw the lovely bride walked up the aisle in one of the most beautiful wedding ceremony that I have ever seen. Reminded me of an unforgettable scene In The Crazy Rich Asians.

I also had the pleasure of meeting and sketching Alexander Gotama who designed and styled this gorgeous wedding in one of Singapore’s iconic heritage venue, The Clifford Pier. What a wedding it was!

Of all the gorgeous ladies and charming men that I sketched that night, the one who stole my heart was  no other than this little boy. Isn’t he an absolute darling?
