BIOGRAPHY
“Sketching is seeing; Writing is thinking; Reading is breathing; Traveling is learning”
Favian Ee, otherwise known as Sketchpacker, is a freelance illustrator, comic artist, and educator. He enjoys both writing and drawing, as well as helping people look at things from a different (often humourous) perspective through his comics. He used to do visual effects for movies, but finds he likes creating comics better.
Favian enjoys urban sketching, traveling and reading as well. Besides teaching art and media in tertiary settings, he also conducts drawing and comic workshops of his own from time to time. He was one of the featured speakers at the Speech Bubble comics festival at the Central Public Library in 2016.
Most of his contributions have been to urban sketching collections, which can be found in Urban Sketchers Singapore Vol. 2, Epigram Books' Our Neighbourhoods series (all 9 books), Great Lengths: Singapore's Swimming Pools (second edition to 50 Metres: Our Swimming Pools) by Kucinta Books, and Let's Draw!
