Another of those amazing and amusing sights in Bangkok. I’ve long been attracted to the sight of this, the dynamics of the vendors and the bargain hunters. Trading in religious amulets seems a big business. And there’s a crazy display of amulet vendors lined up on the sidewalk along the main road leading to the weekend market. There’s a certain look about them, sitting on their low stool at their low tables with their selection of little stone, cement, or brass Buddhist icons. Here I mix that look, those postures, with a generous spray of colours.
The close up pictures are of higher resolution to give a better sense of the paint, paper and the brush stroke. Then there’s the work in progress.
Then there’s me at home holding up the painting for perspective.

I'm Canadian born now residing in Malaysia. I've been working professionally as a freelance artist since the 1980's … time flies.
I’ve travelled extensively over the years and you’ll see that people, places and cultures are a recurring theme in my art, as are nudes, architecture,orchids and nature. My love of tropical vistas is also reflected in the bright colours used. I work mainly with acrylic colours on paper, also handmade parchment papers. You’ll see that over time I’ve gone from representational to bold expression. Then there's book illustration, portrait, comic strip, graphite sketch and caricature. I also works with camera and computer, to create textured images brush strokes just can't deliver.
Since 1980 I’ve exhibited my paintings in Vancouver, Canada, Bangkok, Singapore & Malaysia, places where I’ve resided. More recently though my works can be viewed on online galleries … which allows me less interruptions to my creative time.
