On my only ever trip to Hua Hin I was amazed by the wealth of art shops the resort had around the waterfront and nearby streets. I bought a beautiful painting of Bangkok's Floating Market and at the night market I purchased a real gem of art for our village house. It was a carved wooden picture of a Buddha face and is now proudly hanging on our living room wall. <br /><br />For getting a hit count of your site then try this link http://my.statcounter.com/register.phpMartynhttp://www.thaisabai.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9132162900834611547.post-54843055980462911302009-08-14T07:55:55.566-07:002009-08-14T07:55:55.566-07:00Brunty, I have thought of doing a little selling o...Brunty, I have thought of doing a little selling of some art around the river kwai there are really hundreds of artist painting the bridge and elephants and like you I am amazed how cheap,me I ca't draw a straight line . thanks for the read .

I have always envied people who could as it is such a great way to express yourself.<br /><br />I don't have any Thai art hanging at home, I have sent plenty back to Australia.<br /><br />I used to sell some local art online but don't do this much at the moment because of the low exchange rates. <br /><br />I will have to start hunting again in the near future as I actually enjoy doing this and also have people who bought from me asking for more work.Bruntyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15834787635724207227noreply@blogger.com
