Six Weeks' Notice

This watercolor caricature was inspired by the poster of the movie "Six Weeks' Notice" by Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock. You can see the poster here. It is a nice movie, but don't take my word for it. Rent it out for a Sunday afternoon.

Horse Racing

Painting the horse took more time then anything. I had to look at a few photos online to note the key muscles and bones. In comparison, the cartoons characters at the back are quite easy to do. I used to doodle them all the time when I was in school ^_^

Hawaiian Sunset

Another watercolor caricature done with a beach scene. Oh dear, I think our creative juices are running dry. We need to try so newer themes!

Film Director & Producer

What you see on stage for an hour may take a whole year to produce. It is similar to art paintings. Many people do not understand the hours that we need to spend to paint. E.g. for the about watercolor caricature, we needed around 5 hours in total.

Fairies & Warrior

We gave the middle girl a Xena Warrior princess look. Hope she likes it!

Mechanic Workshop

This watercolor caricature was ordered as present from a lady. I read on the news that solar and electric cars will be our future. I can't wait!! My house is beside a major road!

Football/ Soccer Kids

I am not expert on soccer but a few members seem missing from the team in this watercolor caricature painting. ^_^

Beijing Holiday (Great Wall of China)

We painted her in high-heels in this watercolor caricature but in truth, NEVER attempt to scale the Great Wall with heels! I tried to climb the wall last year during the Olympics but found myself stopping to rest...twice....^_^

Japan Holiday

Hope they like the watercolor painting. I just read on CNN that Tokyo is the most expensive place to live in the whole world. Osaka came in second...Yikes!!!

Birthday Ballooning

We are trying to show that it is a very very tall birthday cake in this watercolor caricature ^_^

Headmaster / Teacher @ Classroom

Phew~It was a tight squeeze to fit everything into this watercolor caricature ^_^

Rugby/Football Man

I really like the theme/background we painted for this watercolor caricature. You can see the stands and the 'goal' (not sure of the proper name) and the grass field. ^_^

Mare/Horse Riding

I am not sure, but I think we did this horse riding watercolor caricature as a birthday present ^_^
