We were here initially.... but there was no parking so we left for Ipoh Garden....
Then we came back again to this place to look for a parking...
See how "Jam" the place is.....
But we managed to find one parking eventually.... phewww....
We were right outside the coffeeshop....
And there was a big crowd there...
I thought someone is "filming" initially....
People of all ages are so fascinated....
So... this is the reason for the crowd....
Lithuanian artist Ernest Zacharevic!
Not wanting to be left out, Elin and I joined in .....
He is obviously oblivious of the crowd...
Fully concentrated.....
That was about it, I suppose....
A few more touch ups ...
and he is ready to go....
That's it!
Good Job Done!
The crowd has gone..... we went for our desserts...
Soon it was time for us to go too...
Back to Office!
HUh? You guys stood under the sun waiting for him to complete that paint? Waited for how long? :O

DeleteRight timing...tot some filming was being done... Girl in red.. Sounds scary or not... Lol...
DeleteHow nice to be able to catch him in action! I wonder whether he was commissioned to do the drawing or not. Nice photo of you standing beside the little girl.
ReplyDeleteNot sure about the commission thing...bur hears that he is holding a solo art exhibition in penang...
DeleteMust be a very good feeling to accomplish so much during the few hours of lunch time. What desserts did you and Elin eat?
ReplyDeleteWe took herbal black jelly....forgot to take picture...:)
DeleteWhat a really good picture he painted!!!!
ReplyDeleteYes..he did quit a number of murals.... Very artistic...
DeleteHe was in Kuching some few months ago and he drew two orang utans, one swinging from a branch and another sitting in a wheelbarrow. He is such a good artist. This picture is almost like the one in Penang but this one is a girl instead of a boy.
ReplyDeleteYeah..on those small windows which are toilets from inside actually... :)
DeleteTruly talented and good looking too! I would ask for a selfie with him. Ooooo...I love that HSBC building, the colonial architecture...so awesome!!! Don't get to see that around here anymore.
