Original artwork description:

Devotion at the foot of the tree, 2014
Acrylic colour on handmade Thai mulberry paper (kada sa), deckled edge, 9.5 x 13.5 in., 24 x 34 cm
Here I reworked an idea I did some time ago. But this time I wanted a small painting with the focus much more on the devotional statue & incense at the foot of a tree. This type of scene is common in Thailand where I got this inspiration.
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 better feel for the texture and brush strokes of the painting. Then there’s the work in progress.
Interested to have your idea painted in this style? Maybe some cherished object, a favourite nook or corner, a storyboard collage from a recent travel, ? Contact me.
About framing.
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.
