The way I think about my life drawing practice is that itโs not dissimilar to a regular scales practice of a musician. You need to do it regularly, no matter how skilled you might be. Thatโs is why I dedicate on average 9-12 hours a week to life drawing. Come and see my work and my fellow colleaguesโ at @drawetc._ โs creative space in Arab street. #artist #artistoninstagram #singaporeart #singaporeartgallery #artforsale #modernart #sgart #sgartist #sgartists #artdeco #sghomedecor #sghome #artdecoring #artdecoration #sgarts #livingwithartsingapore #womenartists #mamaonpalette #lifedrawing #dailydrawing #ะถะตะฝัะธะฝะฐะฒะธัะบััััะฒะต #irinaforresterfineart #dailysketch #dailypainter #artsg #pencildrawing #sketch #inksketch
โMaybe everything is falling apart to come together in a better way.โ - came across this quote on IG few days ago. Missing-in-action to update my postings and creating more works for almost more than a month ๐ Taking this chance for a break and rediscovering life. A short few weeks that made me feel both frustration and excitement. A moment of feeling lost; and a moment of feeling found. Ultimately it came down to an answer on what do you truly want. Run at a smooth path or at a beach? Both will bring you to a stop, train you to be a better runner, but the only differences is the destination and the view (journey). Thereโs no right or wrong path, because if this path doesnโt work out, then start again. Itโs not the end as long as youโre willing to open up another chapter.

Lighting designer Alberta @i_am_wileo is a master at his craft.

He won The Straits Times Life Theatre Awards for Best Lighting of 2022 when this show was staged two years ago. This show is produced by @gatewayarts_sg and now showing till 25 May. It examines the relationship of two teenagers and their struggles with identity, anxiety, meaning and purpose. Come support local artists. You won't regret it.

My favorite artwork at the recently concluded @ohopenhouse Kampong Gelam art trail is I will wait patiently for us, 2024 by artist Ezzam Rahman. The installation resided on the second storey of stalwart nasi padang restaurant, @sabarmenantisg , where there are plans to convert the space into a cafe. A keropok tin emblazoned with the word 'Sabar', or 'be patient' in Malay floats in midair, and opens up to an explosion of keropok clouds up in that air. The work tells of a story of serendipity, missed chances and opportunities, loss that we face in life, including what the restaurant owner faced. Love the melancholic footnote that accompany the installation: "We may chart a course, but life is also full of happenstance. Wait patiently, we may one day meet again." Plus art in unexpected places - in a perfume shop, bookstore, design studio and more as we explored the different layers and eras of Kampong Gelam. #ohopenhouse #srartwork #sgarts #arttrail #sabarmenanti #sgfood #sgfoodie #artwalk #kamponggelam #kampongglam
Chinatown fruit stall. Pineapples seller. WIP Recently I got more and more interested in figurative painting and depicting scenes from life in Singapore. Every Thursday as I go to my life drawing practice @guerrilla.life.drawing, I pass fruit and veg stall near Peopleโs Park Complex.

This is a close-up of a nostalgic piece, titled The Lost Kampong โSilatโ, from 1993 by Koeh Sia Yong which captures the essence of old Singapore with its zinc-roof houses and attap structures, reflecting a time before modern HDB flats and skyscrapers. While these scenes evoke a sense of melancholy for the past, they also commemorate the resilience of those who lived through the floods and challenges of kampong life. ๐ โจ #koehsiayong #vanishingkampong #artandhistory #singaporeheritage #artsingapore #nanyangart #pioneerartist #sgarts #sg #sgdiscover #singaporeartist #singaporeart

We offer: - Haven Classes - Studio Sesssions - Foundational Sessions Haven Classes (1.5h) are run weekly on Sat, and are conducted in a pop-choir style. You will learn to build pop vocal technique and project, pitch and shape your tone as a vocal soloist, while also learning ensemble skills such as rhythm, blend, following and leading. The Haven Classes prepare you for an exciting pop performance at the end of a semester, a culmination of our group efforts. See the next post for more!
You name it, we sing it! You'll get to sing all types of fun iconic pop anthems and even acapella mashups of your favourite songs and artistes! From Disney classics to love ballads from the 2000s, pop anthem hits from Coldplay, funk awesomeness of Bruno Mars, high-octane EDM hits, groovy R&B tunes, soulful oldies in beautiful 4-part harmony, popular musical theater numbers, and more. Each semester of classes is marked by a performance at the end of a season - our concerts will feature a wide variety of song genres that everyone can relate to and feel strongly for.
Not at all! Singing experience is welcome, but not necessary. We believe that learning to sing can be much simpler than typical music schools tend to try to sell you. For intermediate/advanced singers with choral or singing backgrounds, we welcome you to join us - make new singing friends and continue to keep singing in your life journey, and make even more advanced progress via our Haven Classes & Studio Sessions. Vibrato, belt, tons of vowel work, power, distortion, vocal anatomy, and loads more to discover! With the right practice plan and progression, you can find vocal confidence in less time with our Haven Classes & Studio Sessions.
Our classes focus on: โข pitching perfectly โข building powerful vocal technique โข emphasis on voice health โข expressing a sensitive tone โข building a varied vocal toolkit โข solfege โข music reading โข harmonising skills โข singing vocabulary โข vocal anatomy โข performance & stage skills and so much more. At The Singing Haven, you'll learn all the necessary skills for your individual singing goals, and the stage!
A gym bro once told me, "you are asking the wrong question bro". He's right, but we still wanna know anyway. With the right focus and consistency, the average singer should be able to identify clear improvements in vocal ability, self confidence & mental self-image after - 1 month - 3 months - 6 months - 1 year Every 6 months after, if you have been actively working on the progressive singing plan crafted for each individual in your Singer's Profile, you will be able to sense, track and indicate your vocal growth and gains. If you're serious, anyone can get pretty decent in a much lesser time than you think - we really just have to tell ourselves "Today" instead of "One Day"!
Yes! Staying consistent to your singing goals is far easier with a friend. We offer 50% off Haven Classes the first month (4 sessions) for both parties, if you sign up together with a friend. Don't forget the reason you wanted to learn - start your journey to sing together!
Building vocal stamina and power takes time, and as a pre-requisite we must first recognise the correct sensation of a healthy, fully-adducted vocal tone - that is resonant, not airy, and can be added healthy vocal weight upon. Adding vocal weight on top of airiness or other poorly-functioning vocal strains is a recipe for vocal damage if strained and prolonged over time - please don't do this! We provide vocal adduction exercises (backed by science & research!) to help you improve and totally eliminate an airy tone in our classes, and will teach you to engage the right vocal and breathing musculature needed to build a solid and powerful voice. Your vocal health is our priority!
Singing is highly intertwined with how we feel and perceive ourselves. Fortunately, learning to sing and build vocal confidence can help orient our own mental self-perceptions - this is where the true self-transformative work happens! Learn to build vocal confidence in a safe space and genuine community with us, in a learning space that empowers and seeks to understand you & your vocal goals.
Yes! Too many pop singers discount themselves as non-musicians and neglect that they are in fact - musicians! In our Haven Classes, you will learn to read music & apply relevant parts of music theory. For example, harmonic chord progressions can inform us how we can best approach singing a chord or melody part. Or how a certain chord colour can explain to us why a section of music sounds so different, crunchy or cool. Yes, in pop music! In our classes, you will also learn to read and interpret music and rhythm in simple and easy-to-understand ways. If my 9-yo students get it, you can too! Trust ๐
Yes, but as with all skills, it will take time! Vibrato (a steady oscillation in vocal pitch) is an advanced technique - not even dedicated opera singers have complete vocal control over qualities of their vibrato. It is not something that is meant to be 'controlled' forcefully, but 'freed' & 'stabilised'. Some singers take years to develop their vibrato. Others who may have grown up all their life listening to lots of singers with vibrato, seem to develop it sooner. Having an accurate aural picture of the sound first helps, so if you're someone who doesn't desire to sing with it for the genres you want to sing, you don't need to sing with vibrato for your vocal goals. What's for sure is - it is a healthy indicator of a free and efficient voice, and an irreplaceable vocal quality in the human voice for incredibly moving musical & vocal expression. All great singers who mastered their voices sang with vibrato, power, freedom, sensitivity & beauty.
At the end of a season, we will hold a seasonal concert to celebrate and feature the vocal growth of our students & singing community. These concerts will feature pop choir performances, acapella ensembles, acoustic sets, solos & duets, guest performers and more. Start your vocal journey and perform alongside a community of like-minded singers with us!
The average untrained voice has a modal voice range of 1-1.5 octaves. With training, you usually want to bump that range to around 2-2.5 octaves. Some blessed ๐ญ๐ vocal cords get 3 or more octaves. Blessed or not - with our Haven & Studio Sessions, you'll be able to be put on a vocal progression plan to progressively increase your usable modal vocal range to its healthy upper and lower limit for your voice type (Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass).
In addition to Haven Classes, our Studio Sessions (1hr, 2-4pax) allows for focused individual voice work on a weekday evening of your choice - once a month, up to 4 sessions a month! You can bring any song of your choice and work on your vocal technique directly with our friendly & patient lead vocal coach. Find out more in our posts below! For partners or friends keen to sing duets, or small friend groups interested in your own song or acapella idea, you can also bring a song and work on it together in the Studio Sessions. In The Singing Haven, every singer will create their own Singer's Profile on their first Studio Session, which will detail a progressive Singing Progression Plan for your individual voice. You'll use your Singer's Profile to visually track your progress towards achieving your vocal technique goals!
No - we don't really believe in certificates for singing & music. There is a paradigm we are seeking to break with the traditional music school structure in SG, and that is the over-valuation of music grading. In the process of singing, discovering & expressing your voice, we believe it is far more valuable for a singer to validate their musical growth and artistic progress internally. Were you able to move your audience in a live performance with your words & voice? Were able to feel, be, and comfortably express your authentic self on stage, or around others? Can you consistently replicate sounds that you really wanted your voice to be able to do? Tracking your vocal progression in your Singer's Profile, reviewing recent studio performances, asking yourself questions on your next step for improvement or even feeling good after achieving recent goals - we believe these progression metrics to be far more valuable for your singing journey.
Class fees are settled at the start of every month, before the first session. At the same time, every singer will receive a Google Form to submit their Sat attendance for the month - we reserve the right not to schedule makeups for missed lessons from your submitted attendance. We also wish to be keep lessons flexible for sudden illnesses - as long as your absence is communicated to us >24h in advance, we will be happy to make up for your missed Haven class slot with an additional Studio Session in future! For planned holiday breaks, you may just let us know when you'll be away. For group fairness, we reserve the right to remove any singer from performing in seasonal concerts if they are not adequately prepared, do not meet our attendance requirements, or do not meet our community guidelines.
Hey everyone - Kester here! I am a full-time choral conductor and voice teacher with a Bachelors in Music (Distinction) in Vocal Performance from the Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music. With over 10 years of experience performing on stage (choral, classical, opera, pop, acapella, orchestral) and coaching over 300+ students towards their musical goals, I deeply believe that music & community has the power to empower incredible self-transformation, and I want to help others like you discover and grow self-love for your own voice. Singing is a powerful art form for us to see ourselves as we are right now, learn to express ourselves authentically and confidently, and grow to love ourselves better as we go. Our voice is very much like a mirror for us in that sense! In teaching, I aim to condense well-researched concepts in classical & contemporary vocal technique, and distill them into simple-to-understand sounds that any student can identify aurally & learn to use confidently over time. I construct unique progression plans for every singer's voice, depending on individual needs and goals, and form a balanced vocal progression journey for your work-life balance. I hope to meet you in The Singing Haven, where you will discover yourself vocally, experience joy with others, and grow towards the best version of you that you want to become!
