Cheung Chau Drawing Trip

Sunday   14th April,13   Cloudy

During the Easter holiday, my brother and I went on a field drawing trip to Cheung Chau with many others and our drawing class teacher, Professor Choi. This drawing class was special than the usual ones because we drew outdoors . We always draw indoors and have not drawn outdoors for a long time. Actually, I don’t really like to draw outdoors because it is hot under the sun and we need to bring many tools.

That morning, my parents took us to Cheung Chau by ferry. When we arrived there, we assembled at the pier. Soon, all the participants arrived, including my two cousins.     

Then, we started drawing at the pier. I saw many people riding bicycles. Some were tricycles, even huge quadricycles, with seats for passengers in the back row. I also saw a lot of small, old junks. They are Cheung Chao’s characteristics. After many hours, I finished my picture which is the scenery of the busy waterfront with passers-by walking under the colourful flying flags. By that time, all my family members had done theirs. After finishing the drawing, we went shopping on the island.

I thought it was a really enjoyable day.
