My Sketches from Vietnam & Cambodia

Just back from a 16 day trip to Vietnam and Cambodia, with a day stop-over in Korea. Destinations included Hanoi, Halong Bay, Hue, Hoi An, Saigon, and Siem Reap. Check out mysketchbook/scrapbook for more details:

Awesome. That may have been the best trip report I've ever read! I'm in Vietnam and Cambodia right now (for 6 weeks), and you captured them, especially the quirky things, so well. Nice work.

That was really great. My DW does a similar thing, and the sketches really bring your trip to life. You really captured the spirit of the people and places far more than any photograph could do. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful work, Dan!

So enjoy your sketches of Asia and San Francisco. Our current 'second home' (after Singapore) for business and living is SF and your impressions of that lovely city are a delight.

All the best,

robert

This has to be one of my favorite presentations of a trip, ever. What talent, but more, what an eye for what's around you. Thanks.

How utterly charming! Dan - thank you so much. Your sketches are wonderfully evocative of the people, places, food and more.

Thank you, all! It was a lot of fun sketching on my trip. I will have to post the drawings from my Japan trip last year.
