If I get replies from them, then I guess the search is over.<br /><br />They had to be out there somewhere!<br /><br />Thanks a million.<br /><br />AndrewA True Friend to Chinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10953073219104650895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435902129678181031.post-8998126936422929092010-01-26T08:59:25.585+07:002010-01-26T08:59:25.585+07:00Mike,

A friend of a friend has promised to visit the gallery in Chiang Mai but hasn't so far and I can't push this.<br /><br />(Could any reader in CM do this for me please?)<br /><br />The other option is a serious search of the internet in Thai. I have asked for this to be done for me but again it needs another try.<br /><br />Who can do this to move things forward?<br />Many thanks,<br /><br />AndrewA True Friend to Chinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10953073219104650895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435902129678181031.post-21996971191876561092010-01-26T02:43:08.303+07:002010-01-26T02:43:08.303+07:00I also found:

Born in Bangkok with a British father, Jack Reynolds (the author of the book ‘A woman of Bangkok’), Steven was influenced at a very young age by various collections of art books and was fully encouraged and supported by his father to follow his emotions. Steven was inspired during the three years he studied with Vichit Chaiwong and Uab Sanasaen to use different materials in his sculptures. The delicate bronzes are sold in a limited edition only."<br /><br />I figure if they sold his art they might still know where to find him for you.<br />MikeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5435902129678181031.post-4738556496954152342010-01-26T02:30:21.767+07:002010-01-26T02:30:21.767+07:00I found this at http://www.metakaos.com/artist/Ste...I found this at http://www.metakaos.com/artist/StevenMuthikulJones.html<br />"Steven Muthikul Jones <br />Thailand View works <br /> <br />Born in 1962, Steven Muthikul Jones has always had intimate ties with the Arts. Throughout his childhood days, he developed an interest in the Arts through his collection of art books by renowned artists. His father, being an author himself who both illustrated and sculpted as a hobby, encouraged and supported his interest.<br /><br />In his teens, he took a more serious approach towards art by studying drawings, oil paintings and colour mixing techniques with two well-known Thailand artists, Uab Sanasaen and Vichit Chaiwong. It was during those years that he discovered his passion for sculpting, adopting the use of many different kinds of materials such as wood, clay and cement.<br /><br />While studying for his Bachelor Degree in Political Science at Ramkamhaeng University, Bangkok, he worked for advertising firms as an illustrator, model mock-up artist, and also sculpted wood and clay models. He enjoyed producing models and mock-ups for filming advertisements.<br /><br />He sculpted as a hobby and, at the same time, studied various forms of art movements and styles including Deco Art, Impressionism, Expressionism and Surrealism."<br /><br /> <br />MikeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
