KOTA KINABALU: They would gather at least once a month to sketch the landscape, scenery or just about anything that caught their eye at that moment.
Their aim is to show the people what the city and its surrounding areas have to offer and, in turn, promote a deeper sense of appreciation for the cityscape.
For those who love to draw and sketch like himself, he said the very act not only brings like-minded people together but also promotes Kota Kinabalu and Sabah to outsiders. Kwan said that he had done other kinds of art before he heard about Urban Sketchers, an online place where artists from all over the world could show their work that exhibits landmarks and scenery from their own countries or towns.
“Immediately I could guess that she was not local, because rarely do we see locals here sitting and drawing in public,” he said.As it turned out, she was a doctor from Ipoh and part of the Urban Sketchers community.It is managed by Kwan and two others, Hiew Yin Vui and Nancy Chin.He urged more people to be part of their community to showcase their talent, meet new people, and explore the city from an artistic point of view.
