Jalan Bersah and Jalan Besar


Jalan Besar / Jalan Berseh
Shopping for bathroom accessories at Jalan Besar area yesterday, saw this open space in front of Jalan Berseh. It is very rare to see such a huge open ground in downtown Singapore.I decided to record this in sketching before some concrete forest "grow" here.
Sketched it on the reverse side of used parking coupons ( 10 pcs joint together with masking tape ) 200mmH X 850mmL ( 8" X 33.5" )


Maude Road
I was attracted to this building by the unusual facade and very interesting window details.Built in 1955 and is now a boarding house for immigrant workers. There are many interesting shophouses in the surrounding. For sketchers who like architectural details, you will fall in love here.
