Original artwork description:

Acrylic colour on thai handmade mulberry paper(kada sa) , deckled edge, 13.5 x 10 in., 34 x 25.5 cm
Painting is inspired by my time spent in Myanmar & Thailand visiting monks & monasteries there. The rest is an exercise in colours, especially in the orange and folds of the robes, and a sense of the outdoors.
The paper I use is a traditional mulberry paper handmade in Thailand. The paper is a thick parchment paper, strong yet pliable. I have the paper made to this size to get the deckled edges which adds to the textural effect.
The close up picture is to get a feel for the texture and brush strokes of the painting. . Then there’s the work in progress, and me with the painting for perspective.
Please note that you can purchase in the same 1 order up to 3 paintings of this same size or smaller to be included in the same 1 shipping fee.
Interested to have your idea painted in this style? Maybe a storyboard collage from a recent travel, scenery or a family portrait? Contact me.

About framing this painting.
When considering framing bear in mind to not cover up the deckled edges. This is one of the specialties of the painting, one of its charms. It is best displayed framed with a cut mat board around the painting so as not to cover the edges, thereby putting some space between the art and the glass and bringing depth to the framed art. It can also be framed simply with backing board and pressed with glass over the front without causing damage.
