Original artwork description:

acrylic colour on handmade thai mulberry paper(kada sa), 8 x 11 in., 20 x 28 cm.
The painting is inspired by typical scenes I see in Bangkok , I place I regularly return to. As the title suggests, this idea is based on Thewet market, which spills out onto the roadside.
Here I use a traditional mulberry paper handmade in Thailand. It 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 me with the painting for perspective.
Interested to have your idea painted in this style? Maybe a storyboard collage from a recent travel, scenery or a family portrait? Contact me.
Please note that you can purchase up to 3 paintings of this same size or smaller to be included in the same 1 shipping fee. . Packaging for my small paintings like this one is sealed in plastic sleeve, sealed in a padded hard plastic file case, and in an envelope.
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.
