Here I am in Bangkok yet again and what a historic time it is as today there is a royal barge procession on chao phraya, one of the unique events to commemorate the thai king抯 60th year on the throne. Sixty years! And still highly revered and respected by one and all. The only king in the world perhaps that is truly liked and loved by his subjects. The only king that has his picture that I ever see people actually hang in their HOMES, And not just in one or two , but you can see it every where, from the homes of middle class, well educated people to poor farmers in remote regions of chiang rai to nongkhai. I抳e yet to meet any thai that doesn抰 have any good words to say about his king, and this is said with all honesty and not out of politeness or fear. Amazing卙e must be doing all the right things

I love Cezanne n Pollock too. They really got excellent creativity and ideas... original then.

It always facinate me when looking at their artwork bcz Im quite understood on how they thought.

Thanks again...

Thai culture have strong tradition... I think thats why they love n respect the king.

Still remember...last time I went to Thailand (Pattaya) there were a few big posters of the king n queen at the road sides.

IMO pictures can tell more than writing words.

Hmmm the king artworks look so simple.  The paintings... the subjects... the colors...

I heard that there is an art gallery in Johor castle.  So there should be artist among the sultan family.  I know that Raja Zarith Sofia is an artist.

Long time ago when I was in Kuantan, I had the opportunity to look at Tan Sri Mohd Khalil Yaakub paintings.  He painted better than the Thai king then he he he he

Ttg gambar2 kat Indonesia tu... mcm lebai malang la pulak..

Gambar2 tu memang ada kat kamera my professor.  I nak jumpa my professor tu kena la bawa my thesis sekali krn beliau penyelia I.  So I ambil masa utk kemas kini my thesis... then jumpa beliau kat pejabat.  Alaaaa kamera ada... wayar nak sambung ke komputer lak tinggal kat rumah beliau.

Then I cadang nak pergi ke rumah beliau.  So kena kemas kini my thesis lagi.  Bila sampai rumah beliau tak ada org pulak.  I called byk kali tak dpt.

Hmmm nanti la ek... I pergi rumah beliau lagi he he he he

I hanya ambil gambar paintings kat rumah beliau je.  I tak pergi byk tempat lawatan krn I ikut beliau balik kampung so tak kan I nak minta mereka bawa I berjalan2.  Lawan tauke pulak...

Ada sikit gambar yg I sempat ambil ngan my camera...
