87-2696 – Confucius

On Saturday 11 May, we had the 13th anniversary for #UskManila and celebrated with a #SketchWalk at the Chinese Garden in Rizal Park (I’ve been sketching with #UrbanSketchersManila since 2016, so that’s 8 years for me). We had a little picnic too with everyone bringing something to eat (we brought home-made chocolate biscuits and vegetarian sausages). According to the plaque on this statue, Confucius was born in September 551 BC and is considered one of the world’s greatest teachers. The statue was put up in 2009 by the Anvil Business Club on behalf of all students and learners to honour all teachers and mentors.

1134 – Picnic food

This is the teeny weeny kitchen in the Airbnb place that I am staying in Turks and Caicos – more of a hallway than a kitchen really. The #WorldWatercolorMonth prompt for yesterday was picnic food and the only reference to that in my drawing is that there is a little box of cherry tomatoes on the counter!
