Original artwork description:

I’m a regular visitor to Bangkok, and I always find the temple architecture there mesmerizing .Thai temples tend to be so ornate. I'm never sure how to approach this subject. This is again on my 10 x13 inch handmade thai paper. Painting on this paper is like painting on tissue paper. It gets wet very quickly then takes long to dry. So I can work one or two areas on the paper then I plan other pictures or go off to do something else...
I use a traditional mulberry paper handmade in Thailand. It’s a thick parchment like paper, strong yet pliable. I had the paper is made to this size to get the unique, uneven deckled edges which adds to the overall 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.

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.
Please note that you can purchase in one order up to 3 paintings of same size or smaller to be included in the same 1 shipping fee.
