This one is of a young Iranian boy who lives in my son's apartment complex, also in BKK. I actually drew him and his younger brother, (not shown) who literally couldn't sit still for two seconds--so I wasn't entirely happy with how his drawing turned out. I may re-do it from his photo.
Now for the caricature sightings. This lonely little marker drawing was hanging in a mall in Chiang Mai, with no artist nearby. 500 baht is about $15.
Here's a pic of my son (phone glued to his ear ;-) in front of another art studio in the same mall. All of the artists were working on this type of drawing--super-rendered, extremely photorealistic portrait stuff.
Lastly, this one was displayed in a kids' art center, also in Chiang Mai. It was Monday, so they were closed. Wonder if it is one of the teacher's works?
HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU!
