Goya Bar Soi 33,
water color on paper, 18x24 inch
He
grew up in the Bronx. After law at
Harvard, he did corporate takeovers, making millions, enough
for a Park Avenue Coop, Ivy League wife, 2 kids at Horace Mann and summer house in
the Hamptons. When in Bangkok, he drops
by Goya Bar and takes 2 girls to the Novotel on Soi
33. He’s rough and crude, acting out his power. They pretend it’s what they
like. He pays them twice
the going rate, pocket change for him.
For them, 3 month’s rent, their kids’ school for a year and more. They shower and tell him he’s a handsome man,
embrace him at the door, their night’s work done.
