Yeah! NO Thai holidays here as it’s art business as usual @ the studio… with the added bonus that we’ll ALSO be open on Monday!
SO….
If you DO fancy popping into paint on either Sunday (11 – 4pm) OR/AND also Monday (10 – 5pm) the studio will be open & ready for YOU… so to anyone who has the URGE to paint but normally has to drag themselves off to the bloomin’ office on a normal dreaded Monday morning….THIS IS YOUR CHANCE!
All levels welcome.
The diversity of studio members during these lovely summer months is pretty awesome at the moment!
At the higher end of the scale we are blessed to have the company of Mr. Chao, a fantastically cool gentleman who is also turning out to be a very capable & diligent painter…
To his grand daughter Narisa, another up and coming star…
As seen here, working together at their morning art lessons…
To one of our youngest (& certainly one of our cutest students in situ at the moment)…. little Tia, aged just 5 (bless her!)
Want to leave the crowds, pollution and traffic of Bangkok for a day? Want to get in touch with your inner artist in a jungle retreat? Want to sit in an idyllic oasis and paint?
In the secret gardens of a famous Thai artist?
Starting from the second week of September (Monday 12th) Elsie will be holding weekly one day outings to Baan Suan Si lapa in Nonthaburi, home and studio of the well-known Thai artist, Wichien Wonsupalak.
Elsie’s in the final stages of moving home, with everything now out of the old place APART from the “FISH” IN THE POND :/
…& with son Michael (master fish handler #1) currently away in the States & with no time to deal with these little critters (all shapes/sizes & all in a great state, despite the recent absence of their resident fish carer!) before he left…. THEY are ALL now in IMMEDIATE NEED OF ‘NEW HOMES’ & ‘VERY FREE’ to all you fish lovers out there!!
Update on Elsie’s masterpiece: shots from the snowy mountain based front line…FINISHED!
Elsie will back @ basecamp Alfa, aka Attic Studios later on this afternooon…& VERY nice job to you 
OK, if you were wondering where Elsie might have got to this week…. well, she’s off on a #1 art commission, painting a giant mural direct onto the walls and ceiling of a private client’s house in Hua Hin, Thailand’s Royal beach hip hangout place.
Blank walls, untouched ceiling.. about to get hit!
I’m not entirely in the loop on ‘the full brief’ but Elsie IS (with the assistance of French Caroline, bless) as they are currently turning the client’s living room into a fantastically, awesome, snowy mountain range of the Dolomites, the mountain range located in north-eastern Italy.
The biggest and best (F)art Sale in the region! ….. Elsie’s House in on Soi Prommitt, which is just off Sukhumvit Soi 39
BEAUTIFUL STUFF here….
TODAY, aka NOW… happening NOW!!!! with free bacon sandwiches if you get here before 1am… NICE!!
SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE… and there’s loads more ‘other stuff’ too… COME CHECK IT OUT!
The only thing to come out of these boxes were good, all good, very very GOOD
Earlier this week Elsie threw a little art session for one little art student friend of ours, Fay…who came along with 11 of her school friends for a great big & fun farewell party.
The aim of this particular creative session was for each child to make their very own ‘Bangkok Memory Box’, a genius idea that Elsie came up with.
We supplied heaps of reference material (Bangkok-themed) and the children were all encouraged to design their own box, using lots of collage and huge amounts of glue…nice!
THIS SATURDAY (open to everyone, from 1 – 6pm) at this wonderful studio for their latest sculpture exhibition & sale … THIS event is going to make for a ‘très bonne’, aka a good one!

Elsie, coming to the rescue and in collaboration with our lovely Belgium & French sculpture neighbours who run L’Atelier 31 (this place is just a stone’s throw up the Soi from Attic… well, if you were bionic perhaps!?…but hey, it’s VERY CLOSE to us anyway!) is helping them out by adding some of her paintings to the space SO please try and pop along to see some great artistic & highly original work, together.
PARADISE!
And THIS is a real artists haven (which after this Tuesday’s initial and hugely successful 1st TRIP) Elsie has arranged to visit again… NEXT MONDAY, 13th JUNE (leaving Attic @ 8.30 am, returning c. 2.30 pm) AND you’re all very welcome.
I won’t say more… I’ll just let these images absorb you
As Marcel Proust once said “The only paradise is paradise lost” OR in this case…….FOUND!
GREAT RESULT ELSIE and very NICE WORK
