A wrestling match with acrylic inks on a bed sheet : "Khmer underworld"...

In the latter part of this week, I made a second attempt at acrylic inks using a bed sheet as support...

 

May be I should go to to Fabricville to get some more bed sheet fabric! ;-)

A break from my usual painting... varnishing a couple of apsara paintings...

Since my return from my three-week trip in Vietnam and Cambodia, I've spent of few weeks focusing on apsara dancers from Angkor Wat...makes me think of Rodin who had been mesmerized by Kmer dancers when they showed up in France circa1906 in the context of colonial exhibitions. I varnished a few works as an experiment...

I feel the need to do more traditional stuff from time to time, but part of me wants to go back to more visceral stuff...

Close to 3 weeks in Vietnam and Cambodia...

The period from late November to mid December was spent on a cruise ship on the Mekong river and visiting key cities in Vietnam and cambodia. The Buddhist imagery in Cambodia especially agreed with me, Here in front of the Bayon temple in Angkor Thom...

There will be an impact on my art definitely...
