Instant-Trees
I love sketching trees and forests. Unfortunately, there are few mature trees on the roadsides in Singapore. That instance in the photo above is, well, rare. What does one see on the streets? Instant-trees! Yep. Trees planted in nurseries and are then transplanted. Smooth small trees designed for maximum shade.
Thus, there are few old trees of character worth sketching around. What can I say?

botanical gardens? along netheravon road?
nice work btw.
Thanks Little Fish.
No, it's not along Netheravon Road, it's actually at the edge of the Padang. There is a line of graceful, old trees by the Lim Bo Seng, First World War monuments. Currently, there are many tour buses parked along that stretch.
There are some nice old trees near the Museum and also on Fort Canning.
I think there are beautiful ones near the Dempsey Road area too.
