The Broom Seller Man

Last Tuesday we managed, with brilliant results, to get the broom seller man into the studio for a Bangkok Life sitting.  Students took the opportunity to try to capture the chaos and colour of the broom “train” in a variety of styles. Some interested in the madness of feathers and grass and colourful handles. Some interested in the mechanics of the old converted motorbike, and others in Mr. Broom himself and his cool ear-flap hat.

With so much to look at, any point of view was worthwhile.

Hanging off this fantastic vehicle were feather dusters, grass brooms of all lengths and sizes, mops, toilet brushes, plants in plant pots, dust pans, rear view mirrors, a horn, a loudspeaker and a small clock.

I get the feeling this will not be the last time we’ll see the broom guy. We’ll definitely want him back in the future.
