Patrick Smith Master Class in Singapore..

I'm off to Singapore next week to teach a ten session master class through NYU, Tisch Asia. It will be nice to be back in Southeast Asia, an area which I've spent a lot of time traveling a decade ago. This will be an exciting class for me because it's the first time I've instructed entirely using Flash, a program that I've always had mixed feelings about. But it will allow students to perform lessons while in the classroom, as well as allowing me to demonstrate the principles I'm discussing as we go. Unfortunately the students will not be able to take advantage of the texture and soul of a pencil line, I can only hope they take the lessons and work on paper after the seminar is completed. If you happen to be in Singapore at the end of this month, drop me an email and we'll go get some fish head curry!

Hooray for Flash! I'm going to steal your Cintiq while you're away!

Have fun!

Last time I went (about 4.5 years ago) it felt like someone wrapped one of those steaming hot towels around my entire body the moment I stepped out of the airport (Well, that was in Malaysia, but it was the same feeling when I got off the bus in Singapore)


Also, be sure to check out the business district around dinner time; there's a place where food carts just line up the entire street and they serve up a pretty mean satay (beef/chicken kabobs)
