The Power of the Free-Hand Sketch
Hong Kong’s South China Morning Post Newspaper: Friday, July 16, 2010.
“Cultured Lines. Architect Errol Patrick Hugh displays his sketch of Tin Hau Temple in Yau Ma Tei, with the temple behind. The Institute of Architects member was promoting the message that the future West Kowloon Cultural District needs to be organically connected with its adjacent neighbourhoods. The second stage of public consultation begins next month.” (Page 3, City Section)

Jonathan Wong, reporter of the South China Morning Post, took this photograph of my sketch of the Tin Hau Temple. The sketch is very effective for the West Kowloon Cultural District Taskforce, because it got the brief and important message of the Taskforce printed on page 3 in the “City Section” of the newspaper. The free-hand sketch created an eye-catching and dominant image.
