If you haven’t been able to reach me over the past few months, there was a rather good reason why. I just arrived back from a three+ month adventure trek across South East Asia & beyond. The journey was filled with a welcome overload of artistic inspirational travel, and a lifetime worth of memories, and plenty of photos from the field to base my next Existential Landscape paintings on.
As usual, the journey wasn’t planned out more than a plane ticket, the first night’s hotel accommodation, and a few potential ideas. Rather than set stringent travel plans, I let serendipity guide me, and as usual, ended up finding some amazing places I wouldn’t have even thought to plan a trip to, including many exotic (and some more touristy as well) destinations in Nepal, Myanmar, Cambodia, Vietnam, and the mega-city Hong Kong…
Not only did get the chance to explore a few new countries for my incredibly surreal visit to a Burmese hospital), even crawled through snake-infested temples in Cambodia, I feel the next few months will be relatively relaxed. Don’t get me wrong, the trip was absolutely incredible, despite (or somewhat due to) all the crazy happenings along the way. Luckily, I have plenty of artistic inspiration, as well as a few interesting stories, to last a lifetime, and am itching to start painting again.
Some of the trip photos are already on line in the Field Photogaphy Gallery.
There are a bunch of blog posts in the works as well–be sure to check back soon.
