Job done.

The chart.




Bukit Brown Advocacy Award

At the award ceremony for this advocacy recognition, the unusually trophies caught my eye and became the focus for my sketch.
 

Later in the evening we held a debrief, which with some tentative plans,it was decided to embargo some infirmtion: hence it for public display


The two sweeties were as alike as chalk and cheese


Unused "real estate" at the end of the scribing allowed for dynamic headlines 


This logo was caught off someone's bountiful chest

The chart



And the chartist


SG50 Engagement and Networking meeting

Practicing the logo: quickly found that
1) standard maker pen is not the answer:
2) Liquitex marker on pan pastel was better
3) luiqitex marker on hair sprayed pan pastel was the best
4) full logo as in 3)

My prepared header.

I was a "normal" participant at this session.
I wrote ahead to be allowed to stand up t do a GR at side or back.
I was gracefully declined!.

I planned to do a Stealth Recording done on my lap, seated half way back in the auditorium at Star Vista. My 4x8 foot chart was folded into 1 foot squares. I prepared a 2x3 foo backing for my lap.


Stealth Recording in progress 


NB I had got my folding sequence WRONG and so page turning caused a lot of rustling noise.

At the end of the session I presented my chart to the Organisers and they liked it very much.

Jubilee Intersect Meeting

I planned to do a GR here,
At a friends home,
 knowing there was no wall space, so I brought my own wall.

The setup: two 4x6 foot foam core boards: duct taped to door frame.
Lined with 0.3 mm plastic sheet
Four foot paper roll arranged across this "Minland pinboard"
Not quite Neuland, but improvised.

Heading, border and sign-off in place.

Breakfast is served




And consumed with gusto.

We gather to pray


And pray we did


Introductions

Three greats and a wish:
Great: created a portable wall (Minland pin board) for this gig
Great: harvested six small group presentations
Great: love the gloves
Wish: more icons...

Amazing Story


As is our family practice, I get to put a set of grandchildren (Liana , nearly 8, and Luke 6) to bed every Friday night with a bedtime story, improvised on the spot, focussing on some vent of the day. The kids often suggest variations on the story as we go along.

30 minutes before bedtime, Luke was energetically playing with his new yellow plastic ball. Then he spied me doing something on my iPad: I was reading up on ”active listening" and making notes using, paper by 53.

"Can I try?" Luke asks:
So I set a new page on Paper by 53 and handed him Pencil by 53.
"How do you erase" was his first question.
I showed him that Pencil could erase by using its top eraser tip.
I set it to black ink fountain pen and Lukie sat down to experiment :
This is what he came up with.


Then Liana wanted a turn.
Luke did not want to give up his shot on the ipad, so I picked up his ball and said
"Luke Look".
And Luke came over to me
I showed Liana for 20 seconds how to call up the colour palate and change colours.
She tried the different writing tools and said she preferred marker.


Then I started my bedtime story
Luke look, I said, holding up his yellow ball
When you look inside your ball you can see two tiny people.
can you see who they are?
It's Ashley and Veronica

(In the car ride home from dinner the kids had been talking about their two year old twin cousins Ashley and Veronica)

And Ashley and Verinica are dressed in TaeKwonDo uniform...
And so the story went on and on and


Liana said; look...


Without prompting, without prior example, 
without guiding, Liana had produced a graphic recording of the first part of the story!
She wanted to do more but it was getting late.

Time to say our prayers Luke reminded
And we did.

I slept so happy that night
