SE Asia sketches 2023

Soi Cowboy!! You want fun this is fun! Be nice and buy the girls a round!

Smack dab midtown Bangkok, sketch till you can't sketch no more.

Tuk Tuk (Took Took) best way around town, set on price first tho. Then go really fast!

If you want t-shirts, tourist crap or chow houses that seat 50 then this is your spot.

Sky train or Metro makes getting point A to B very easy, & Aircon too

Cool Sailor stuff that I just have to sketch, glad I'm not working shipyards no more.

The boat that thinks he can. Yes you can

Long tail boat ride took us to this outstanding gold buddha, very nice.

I call these "dumper boats" load em up then dump em, not much free board

Water level down doesn't mean the sun can't find you

Silk farming, yellow silk only comes from Cambodia

Gas - N - Go, got motoscooter? They got gas

King's Quarters, he was visiting when we attempted, come back tomorrow

Heading for Tonle Sap Lake

Blue boats everywhere, I like blue boats

This is probably a tie in "favs", these temples are stunning to see.

We went back second day in a row, first thing no one around, perfect time. Just you and the birds.

These draws are fun when their done but each one presents its own "toughness" to draw.

Trees need arm rests too, chillin kinda tree

There were quite a few of these guys tearing stuff up, making noise. Just being a monkey

This was a very zenful place, so quiet, small pool in back. Sit and take in

Big daddy of them all!

4,000 Riels about a buck, most rides two buck chuck but again agree first before going "ya hoo"

If you really need stuff go here, smack dab mid Saigon

History buffs? Lots of blow shit up stuff here, good but depressing show

Saigon Post office - yep you can mail your post card off there too

Saigon - Vung Tau boat run, lots of these guys waiting for their next run

Dumper boat being loaded up with what? Coal and tons of it

All kinds of stuff to sketch you just have to find the right thing to sketch

Lots of dragons in the Viet, this one protecting a gate or something Vung Tau

Fish market every single one was hustle and bustle. Fish On! She sells orange juice

Dr. Chicken chopper upper, Vung Tau probably around 85-95 degrees. Love the ladies eyes

long boats and round boats, fish is definitely what's for dinner

If you see this outside your hotel when checking in, turn around and check back out! This was my wake up call, time to move

Vietnam's tuk tuk version I'm guessing. More power

These ladies were great, big smiles and kind. They really liked sketch of themselves

Lazy beach day, no one on the beach

There were quite a few of these you'd find crammed back in some off side street. Good capture

Right downtown on beach

Sleeper car with 6, I got one bottom seat the other an older Viet lady, very nice too

One of many "really like" draws. This trip I stayed with minimal color and like outcome

Gas - N - Go, filler up

Cham museum - look for Angkor Angels in the temple walls, their everywhere

Cham museum sketch

Dress for success

Military museum Da Nang very good, specifics for Uncle Ho too

Golden Bridge located outside Danang way up high nice & cool too

French village, Ba Na Hills, Vietnam

Aloha Tower downtown Honolulu, Hawaii

Diamond Head light - Oahu

Downtown Honolulu, Hawaii

Then there's the signs, try and capture what is really up there. These are a sample of many.

Signs of good ideas, capture the color

Signs seem very basic but actually took more time than anticipated, but fun was had

Dua - coconut, circle with horn means jack shit. Honk em if you honk em!
