Psst… I’m Over Here.

Going back to glorious Thailand for a month, not that there’s that much hawt bloggin’ going on here at the moment.  But if you’re looking for me, I’ll likely be here:

For the Food Lovers

Torrance-based Flickerite and global traveler Brandon Shigeta is in Asia at the moment and has the most beautiful set up, Mobile Vendors, which I believe was taken entirely in Thailand.  He’s shooting with a 5D MkII, so the quality, colours and everything else is just [...]

Alternate Living Arrangements

I’ve been processing some of the non-exhibition photos from my trip to Thailand this year.  Yesterday I put up a series of photos of cargo barges and ships taken in Sriracha Harbour, a largely breakbulk operation.  I took these pictures while accompanying S. Ian Song to the island of Ko Si Chang, which [...]

Aerobics – Alive and Well in Thailand

That’s the totally 80′s mural below the elevated outdoor stage for aerobics and other physical fitness activities at Samitivej Sriracha Hospital in Sriracha, Thailand. Now that the 80s are back, this is totally contemporary again!  Click here for maximum embiggening.

My Condo, My Studio

While I was in Thailand, I was asked to donate a piece to Burapha University. Being that the University was such a generous host, there was no way I could refuse, even though I don’t really paint on canvas, ever. I can’t even remember buying a canvas before.

Street Art in Bang Saen, Thailand

I spent 90% of my time in Thailand in Bang Saen, mostly in the neighborhoods along Long Hard Bang Saen Road, between the main coastal highway and Burapha University. Being a college town I expected to see some street art, and I did find it, but not much. On my last trip to [...]

Your Moment of Coin-Op, Robotic Salvation

So, after a long day of sightseeing, rain dodging and chow eating, fellow artist Ian Song and I wander up to the Goddess of Mercy shrine on Ko Loy, a tiny island linked to Siracha (home of the sauce!) by a causeway, and we see a fellow standing in front of the above, [...]

In Which I Discover the Thai Danger Dog!

I suppose it’s no surprise, that in what must be the center of the street food universe, I discover the Thai version of the danger dog, a quadruple threat of bacon wrapped beauty. All this within minutes walk from my room in the Dr. Sanoh Unakoon Condominium at Burapha University. The school year [...]

Too Tired

I wish I was young like this guy, that I met on Monkey Mountain here in Bang Saen. I’m feeling both old and tired today. It’s hot, and I have a gazillion photos to process and things to say, but I need a nap. So I guess I’m just sharing some monkey action [...]

If You Happen to Be in Chonburi Tomorrow, July 7…
