13 Oct: PEACH Chatuchak Market (Bangkok) Street Artist LIVE

Official event page - https://www.facebook.com/events/1617413255065585/ Peach, Sketch Artist From Bangkok Helps Rescue Group In Malaysia The History of Peach and Sherrina from Independent Pet Rescuers, Malaysia. Meet Peach. I have never met an artist like Peach. He paints, draws, and sketches because he just loves it. When I first met Peach it was perhaps 4 or 5 years ago when my friend Say Ming bumped into me in Bangkok when I was on a work trip. So as my tour guide he took me around and we ended up in Chatuchak Market. It was an amazing place! He took me to meet Peach - hi s artist friend with a shop in the market. There was something about Peach that I loved instantly. Perhaps, it was his love for cats (he had about 4 in in his shop then - all rescued from the streets) or the fact that he just loves sketching cats! Either way, Peach I knew was going to be my friend for life. Catherine and I have no other artist collection in our homes and offices but of Peach
