I chose to sketch one of the historic buildings along the Bund, the Customs House, at night. One trivia I learned from the audio guide we rented while inside Oriental Pearl Tower is that the clock on the Customs House is the largest one in Asia. Anyway, this was my first time to sketch at night. I thought the experience would not differ so much from daytime sketching, but I was wrong. I could not see the color of my pencils and had to look closely at the color labels for me to recognize the colors.
The lights made the structure really attractive that I became determined to capture it in my sketch even though I was feeling lazy.
