This large watercolour painting was the result of a week-long visit to the temples in northern Thailand.  I found this buddhist monk in one of the tiny temples in the village of Chiengrai.  Unlike the normal saffron robes, worn by most monks in Thailand, this man wore lilac while consulting his prayer wheel.

This painting is framed behind museum glass in a gold-coloured wooden frame, with an off-white cardboard mount.

The painting is 28"x35"x1" framed and 20"x26" unframed.
