Here is another sketch from my Cambodia archive. This one was done in pencil and pastel – my favourite media at the time. Obvously I did a lot of sketching in temples when I lived there – I always found them to be lovely peaceful and quiet places.
Nov-1993
I am travelling for holidays, so although I am sketching en-route, I am posting this in advance from my archives. This was done in Cambodia in 1993 – I am not sure which Wat (temple) it is…probably Wat Lanka which I lived near for three years.
4-April-1993
Here is another sketch from my archives. When I lived in Phnom Penh, I used to go out on Sundays on my bike and sketch some of the interesting houses in the area where I lived. This was before the city became much more developed and crowded…when there were still old wooden houses in the centre of the city. I am not sure if that is the case anymore.

I had no time to sketch today, so here is another one from my archives. This one was done in Battambang in Cambodia. I looked on google to see if I could find a Wat Popet, but couldn’t find it, so maybe I got the name wrong?
10-Dec-1993
Here is another one from the archives – a sketch of a temple entrance in Phnom Penh. This was done in a combination of pencil, ink and watercolour pencils.
Aug-1993
Here is another sketch from the archives done during a trip to Vietnam I made with a friend in 1993. We started in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh) and then took a bus to Dalat, where I remember it being relatively cold and drinking lots of really nice coffee. I guess I drew this from the hotel where we stayed.

I haven’t been able to sketch today, but here is one from the past, done in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. I think this was done near where I lived.
Sun-8-Aug-1993
Here is a blast from the past. I have gradually been scanning sketches from my old sketchbooks and thought I would post one from a trip I made to Vietnam when I lived in Cambodia. This was done on a trip to Dalat in August 1993, which (if I remember correctly) my friend and I got to by bus from Ho Chi Minh. That’s my friend reading in the foreground on the left. I started numbering these sketches at sketchbook 1, this is from sketchbook No.4.
Tue-31-Aug-1993
Another from my Cambodia days. This one is a simple ink sketch done on a blank postcard.
