About The Artwork

Acrylic colour on Fabriano cold pressed watercolour paper 22 x 30 inches. Another of those amazing and amusing sights in Bangkok. I’ve long been attracted to the sight of this, the dynamics of the vendors and the bargain hunters. Trading in religious amulets seems a big business. And there’s a crazy display of amulet vendors lined up on the sidewalk along the main road leading to the weekend market. There’s a certain look about them, sitting on their low stool at their low tables with their selection of little stone, cement, or brass Buddhist icons. Here I mix that look, those postures, with a generous spray of colours. The close up pictures are to give a better sense of the paint, paper and the brush stroke. Then there’s the work in progress. Then there’s me at home holding up the painting for perspective. There is also a photo showing the typical scene of the amulet vendors on the roadside nearing the weekend market in Bangkok. Interested to have your idea painted in this style? Contact me. More about me @gordonartist1 on facebook , instagram, twitter

I'm Canadian born now residing in Malaysia. I've been working professionally as an artist since 1980 ish… time flies. I have exhibited my paintings in Vancouver and coastal B.C., Bangkok, Singapore & Malaysia, areas I’ve lived in over time. Now I do it all online. I’ve traveled extensively over the years and you’ll see that people, places and cultures are a recurring theme in my art. I attach importance to papers I use for my paintings. Some are done on acid free watercolour papers, from 180lb weight to 300lb. I also use handmade parchment type papers. These are thick yet pliable, strong, with deckled edge that add to the look of my paintings. I’m still a passionate guy. I’m passionate about life and people, passionate about art and painting. And I feel really at my best when I’m putting all these things down on paper. I only wish I had more time to delve into all these activities of mine. But I work with what I have. My health sucks so I’m slowing down. And there's more: book illustration, portrait, comic strip, caricature. I also work with camera and computer, to create the images brush strokes just can't deliver. So follow my brush work and hopefully you’ll find that special painting meant just for you.
