<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">"As promised, I rang in the new year last night by working on an art piece. I finished cutting the first lino from my most recen trip to Chiang Mai. This is a very special place to me, a shaded peaceful spot towards the back of Wat Phrasingh, where many young monks would gather to meet their friends, sometimes study and often, just hang out and enjoy the company of friends and curious foreigners. I showed up here on one of my last days to draw this piece while Phra's Kritsada Prueprung, Yee Vongpaseuth and Khamla Yotthavong were still in class."</span><br />

This is the progression of a 2-color linocut portrait I was commissioned to create for my friend Nico, (Nicolas Gerard), a gift he was pesenting to his parents in France because he doesn't get to see his family as often as he'd like to. He asked me if I'd be interested in creating a portrait of him in any medium I wanted. Just so happens I've been wanting to work on a 2-color print as I haven't in quite some time. Thanks Nico, the timing couldn't have been better. ;O)<br />

I decided upon my return to NYC from Thailand to create a special little hand-carves vessel to hold a tiny Buddha I purchased while at a visit ti Wat Doi Suthep.<br />
<br />
This little vessel carving ended up being the first of 2 others that I worked on while I was stuck in the apartment during the recent storm we experienced in NYC and the region. The additional 2 carvings hold heart-shaped stones I've picked up over the years and am ready to set free.<br />

In an effort to continue the tradition of sending my self postcards with "impressions" of the places I'm traveling to, I managed to send myself 2 sketches and my roommate a 3rd sketch. There are 2 more heading to friends and family, perhaps if I get scans of those, I'll be able to post them here as well. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: left;">Here are scans of the 11 lino sketches I produced while in Chiang Mai this past month. I only wish I had more time to add a few more images to this edition, there is definitely a couple of temples i visited with unique and special things i would have loved to have captured as images for a print. Guess there's always the next time. Now it's time to get started cutting and printing these guys. </span></div>

I'm currently in Chiang Mai, Thailand as part of my yearly exodus from NYC during my birthday month. This year, I've decided to return to Chiang Mai after having been here in January as part of the inaugural team of <a href="http://www.volunteerpositive.org/">Volunteer Positive.</a> My experience was so enlightening at the time and I met some wonderful people while here initially, I decided to come back on my own in order to expand on the previous experience, in order to draw, paint, explore, <a href="http://www.culturalcanvas.com/canvas_projects.php">volunteer with Cultural Canvas/ Art Relief International,</a> and celebrate my own life.<br />
<br />
I will not bore you with the details of traveling on a buddy pass internationally, suffice it to say, I appreciate the $ I saved, the generosity of my friend Edie, (and the upgraded travel on the first leg of the trip to Business Class), but I did end up traveling an entire extra day. I left my apartment on Weds, September 5 at 10:30 a.m. and reached my destination at 9 a.m., Saturday the 8th. That includes an 11 hour time difference. Either way you look at it, I was a mess by the time I arrived in Chiang Mai. The initial flights 2 hour delay in NYC creating the avalanche of missed flights that followed, and being on a buddy pass meant I was rescheduled at the airlines convenience, not mine. Please note: I am not complaining about any of this, just relaying information to anyone else who might be interested in traveling internationally on a buddy pass with standby tickets.<br />
<br />
Alas, that already seems like months past. I am now quite happily engrossed in my travels in Chiang Mai and want to use this page as a means to show the artwork I have created so far, including a couple of the drawing I did in transit.<br />
<br />
I hope you enjoy and come back as I will be adding more images as I finish them, and then eventually as I return to NYC, scan, cut and print my new "Chiang Mai September 2012" Portfolio. I will be selling prints form this Portfolio as well as from my <a href="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.3184415847317.160354.1173367678&type=3">"Chiang Mai - January 2012"</a> Portfolio in order to return to volunteer with <a href="http://www.volunteerpositive.org/">Volunteer Positive</a> in February 2013.<br />

All Buddha prints available measures approximately 6" X 9" and are printed on Rives BFK 100% rag, archival quality paper, (with the exception of the gold metallic paper). There are some Buddhas on Grey Paper, others on Cream, and still others on White. Each print is being sold for $40, and is being sold in order to raise funds for a return trip to Chiang Mai, Thailand in September where <a href="http://www.art-relief.blogspot.com/2012/01/school-for-life-stands-up-to-hiv.html">I will be working with the wonderful folk at Cultural Canvas/Art Relief International.</a> The original print of the Buddha was drawn on-site, </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">directly on to the piece of linoleum</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 14px;">, and then cut and printed upon my return to NYC. <a href="https://www.facebook.com/david.berube.758">If you would like to see what's available, you can hit me up on Facebook and take a peek</a> or send me a message here on Blogger.</span></div>

We say "must have" because the <em>chedi</em> was mostly destroyed within a few hundred years of its construction. Some say it was an earthquake in the 17<sup>th</sup> century that did the deed; others say it was King Taksin's cannons firing on the city to chase out the Burmese in the 18<sup>th</sup>century."</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Finally finished my Soho painting. Not particularly thrilled with it. Way too many details and lots of stop and go between when I started it and when I finished it. These little paint projects are supposed to be "sketches", the idea being that I<span class="text_exposed_show" style="display: inline;"> take reference shots from my day and paint them as documentation, a visual journal of my life, the people I love, the things I see. Unfortunately with subject matter like buildings in Soho on a gray day, there isn't a lot of emotion attached to the reference. Actually looking forward to moving on to the next, a portrait of my friend <a data-hovercard="/ajax/hovercard/user.php?id=625403756" href="https://www.facebook.com/thedivinegrace" style="color: #3b5998; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none;">Chad Pace</a>. Far more interesting. But I have a crazy work week lined up and I want to avoid the whole stop and go thing this time.</span></span><br />

This is the apartment I live in at the corner of 52nd Street and 10th Avenue in a little place called Manhattan in a little neighborhood called "Hell's Kitchen".<br />
<br />
At 17 years this year, It's the only place I've lived longer than the home that I was raised in. With my studio located in the front corner room, (count up 2 windows from the corner of the building). Over the years, it's become the center of my Universe. I've seen a couple roommates come and go, a couple boyfriends come and go, a couple dogs come, (The Mimz is still here.... and well, one ex is still here), but most importantly, I'm still here watching the world from my little corner.<br />
<br />
Below are a few of the steps I go through to finish one of these itty-bitty, little 5" X 5" paintings.<br />

Being the type of person who doesn't make friends, true friends, all that easily or all that often, I've learned over the years that people like Joshua Paprika Fennell are a rare find in my life. The type of person that I know I was meant to meet and meant to know for the rest of my life.<br />
<br />
We met a few years ago at the dog park down the street from where I live and as I discovered not too far from where he lives as well. It just so happens that Joshua has a Jack Russell Terrier, the same breed of dog as my, "Mimzy", and he's also an aspiring self-taught Artist with a passion for life that is evident in everything he does. Joshua is what I refer to as my, "Brother from another Mother", or "Sister from another Mister", depending on the mood and his behavior.<br />

Because I do not have the ability to do one thing at a time, I was taking pics of my progress last night on this portrait of my friend George Berberian and texting them to him as I was working on the piece.
<br />
<br />
Part of the conversation that ensued is contained below. It will give you a little insight into what the brain of a Virgo Artist is doing when he's walking along the street, or sitting on the subway, visiting a foreign land or hanging out with one of his favorite people. I have been blessed in so many ways with having the ability to relay what I see visually, but I've also been condemned with the ability to never take things for their surface appearances. In my minds eye, there isn't just a blue sky, a pretty orange flower, or a beautiful set of eyebrows.<br />
<br />
TEXT<br />
<b><br /></b><br />
<b>George:</b> Far be it for me to criticise the artist...<br />
tho I do think my eyebrows are too thick...<br />
<b>George:</b> You're doing it so quickly, and with paint... impressive<br />
<b>David:</b> Lol.
I told you I wasn't done fool!!!.<br />
Besides, what do you think a Virgo Artist sees first,
second, third and fourth when he looks at you?<br />
<b>George:</b> Uhhh... different shades of color?<br />
Is that a rhetorical question...<br />
<b>David:</b> And I had already adjusted the eyebrows before you texted.<br />
I'm challenging myself by using one size brush.<br />
<b>David:</b> Not for me it isn't <i>(in reply to george asking if my question was rhetorical)</i><br />
My job in life is to observe.<br />
And appreciate.<br />
<br />

My sketch is approximately 4" X 4", acrylic paints on textured paper. Unfortunately, because I used metalic gold paints, reproduction of my painting isn't the best quality. The subtlties of color in my painting are not obvious in the photo. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I've also been craving doing some color work and some painting, so I broke out the acrylic paints and brushes and did this quick little "sketch".
If you've been keeping track of my recent linocuts, you'll have seen a similar image printed of this same subject. What I've learned to do over the years is to always photograph the image I am drawing on to lino when i am traveling and doing an on-site lino drawing. The reason for this is to have a refer4ence shot of whatever it is I'm looking at just in case I decide to add color to the lino or I have trouble understanding what I drew.
This is my friend Phra Kritsada Prueprong, a 20 year-old Buddhist Monk I met and became friends with in Chiang Mai.

In a bit of a daze and reluctant to stray too far from the guest house/hotel for fear of being lost in the metropolis that is Chiang Mai, (ha, ha), I decided to take a little walk. I figured my best bet was sticking to the main roads and relying on my experience with using visual markers as my guide. The place I finally ended up at was Wat Intakhin, or Wat Sadue Muang depending on who you ask. This relatively unassuming Wat that stands just to the left of the “Three Kings” sculpture was the first Temple I saw while in Chiang Mai. I didn’t go in, just took a peak through the open front doors, looked in through a side window and eventually discovered the beautifully wrapped Stupa that eventually became this linocut.<br />
<br />
In retrospect I realize how silly I was being. This particular Wat is comparable in distance from the hotel as a 4-block walk in NYC, yet at the time, on my first day, it felt like a 30 mile walk into the unknown of a foreign land.<br />
<br />
It became a spot I would see or walk by almost daily during the rest of my 3.5 weeks in Chiang Mai, so it has a special spot in my heart. I started out on this journey rather hesitant and fearful of the unexpected and ended up eventually discovering so much more about Chiang Mai and my self. I ended up spending my entire last week hanging out in a number of the 80 Temples that dot the city like Starbucks dots NYC. I became adventurous in my exploration, I even learned the proper way to enter a temple and prostrate to Buddha. I walked around the city like I would walk around NYC and documented my journey through 100’s of photo’s as well as sketches on postcards and finally linoleum.<br />
<br />
So, to Wat Intakhin and the gentleman who sat down next to me for a good 1/2 hour the afternoon I was drawing this particular linoleum, I say, “Thank you. You will always have a special place in my heart. Despite the fact that you and I could not communicate verbally, your kindness was obvious and indicative of Chiang Mai. I will always be grateful.“<br />

<br />
Th first print, an "Alley Scene" is described in the following excerpt from an interview i recently participated in.<br />
<br />
"I’m currently working on the series of linocuts I created while I was in Chiang Mai in January. And the one piece I’m cutting out right now was drawn the afternoon after I had sliced 2 of my fingers open quite badly the night before. I had limited time to draw on my own during my service and was looking forward to spending as many days on my own as possible wandering through the city “recording”. I was pretty disappointed when I woke up the following morning as I could barely bend my figures, each time opening the wounds and having blood pour out. But, I bandaged the hell out of these 2 fingers, grabbed my art supplies, a bottle of water and my backpack and headed out anyway. I’ve worked under far worse circumstances. It was another beautifully clear and already warm early afternoon and I found myself wandering through the back streets of old Chiang Mai. I passed an open-air garage where a young man was creating what I assumed was religious iconography by hand-stamping various sizes of tools into a sheet of metal. I passed someone’s yard whose fence was covered in a somewhat unkempt fragrant flowered vine that smelled beautifully. And then I spotted something I wanted to draw. I found a great vantage point next to a fence and in the shade. Standing here, you could smell the scent of incense wafting around in the air, with so many temples in the old city, it’s not an uncommon smell. Every once in a while a motorbike would whiz by or a kid dressed in their school uniform would pass. Occasionally they would pass close enough to take a peak at what I was drawing. <br />
<br />
Just remembering all of these little details brings a smile to my face."<br />

This second print is from a drawing at one of the local temples in the old city. Unfortunately, I did not make note on the back of it as to which temple I was at. If I can find some online reference, I'll be sure to add it here.<br />

(And one linocut from my friend Phra Kritsada Prueprong) The first 2.5 weeks was spent in service which afforded me very little time to actually draw on my own, most of the prints from the full series were sketched out on my last week in Chiang Mai. The only 1 of these 3 lino's that was sketched during my actual service is the Elephant sketches print. We spent an afternoon at the <a href="http://www.baanchangelephantpark.com/course/">BAAN CHANG ELEPHANT PARK</a> in Chiang Mai where after a educational introduction to the Asian Elephants in residence we had lunch and a few minutes to digest our food before the 2-hour trek we were about tro partake in. Having not had much opportunity to do any prior sketch work, I had the foresight to bring along a few pieces of pre-cut lino and stole away for 20 minutes after lunch and did these sketches. Let it be known, elephants do not stand still, ever. It was a challenge to get a complete sketch, which explains why there are so many partial elephants in this print. <br />
<br />
The print of the Monk is in fact a dear friend I made while in Chiang Mai. He is a 20 year old Monk named Phra Kritsada Prueprong originally from a village outside of Chiang Mai in Loei province. We were paired up as part of something called "Monk Chat" which is an event that creates the opportunity for local monks to practice their conversational skills with English speaking foreigners. On this particular morning, Kritsada and I took a tour of a few of the local temples and I decided that since he would share with me, I would share with him by having us both work on a lino sketch. I offered to take his drawing back to NYC with me where i would cut it out and print it for him. I had no idea that he could actually draw and was quite talented. It turned out to be an incredible opportunity for the both of us.<br />
<br />
The print of the banners was from Wat Phrasingh in Chiang Mai. I'm not sure of the exact purpose of the banners, but if you look carefully, you will see representation of 3 Birth Year Animals.
