Australian Guy


Australian Guy, water color on paper, 18x24 inch

 He’s been living in Thailand for ten years, owns a few beer bars in Pattaya and a Bangkok condo.  Some weekends, he heads over to Saigon, Singapore, Shanghai, Hong Kong or Phnom Penh.   Once every year, he goes back to Sydney for a month, sees his Mum and a few old mates, shaking his head, how can they live such routine lives?  Twenty year wedding anniversaries, a little house with a yard, a mortgage, promotion, maybe a raise.  Only the kids seem worth it
