Bangkok Noir in Pattaya

My very 1st Exhibition in Thailand opened in December 2009, at a wonderful gallery in the upscale Pratamnak District of Pattaya owned by Liam Ayudhkij, an Irishman who came to Thailand as a 21 year old backpacker and somehow managed to create a multi-million dollar business called PCS which employed over 25,000 people in Thailand. Liam loved art and used his fortune to became one of the largest collectors of modern art in Thailand, often using his Pratamnak gallery to showcase some of his huge and very valuable collection. My show at Liam's Gallery featured almost one hundred of my paintings from the Bangkok Night, spread across the gallery's 4 spacious floors. The Opening Night was also a launch party for the Bangkok author Christopher G. Moore's two latest books, each one featuring one of my paintings on the cover. A novel titled "The Corruptionist" and a descriptive book of his Calvino Series titled, "The Vincent Calvino Reader's Guide."Opening Night was lovely. A warm breeze off the Gulf of Thaiand, an appreciative crowd. My debut on the Thai Art Scene......
