at home in the world Welcome to my chronicle. I have embarked on my 'global art studio tour' (GAST). Who knows how long i'll be gone or where exactly it will take me. I hope to meet as many artists, see as many studios, and make as much art work as possible before my return. If you wish to sponsor me, you will receive a peice of artwork, of your choice, after my return at the value of which you sponsor me. (does that make sense?) Put another way, you can pre-purchase artwork from me, if you would like. The two ways to get money to me are (1)Send it to my parents who will deposit it: c/o Ron & Janine Parrish, 9102 Towanna Tr., Austin, TX 78736, USA. OR (2) email me (via this website) for Paypal information. (my account is under my email address, if you already have that.) Thanks so much. Please comment as freely and frequently as you wish on articles and picture. ~heather

Chiang Mai, so far

I wasn't even planning on coming to Chiang Mai, but Sonya said its a must. And her wonderful parents have put me up in a guest house here. Its walking-distance from the famous Night Market, the old city area, (the train station, which, yes, I attempted to walk from last night - and would've made it but Sonya's dad thankfully met me half way with the car). It's cooler here than Bangkok, more vegetation and mountainous. There are almost as many buddhist temples here as in all of Bangkok. There supposedly are a lot of artists here as well. I hope to find some...
