Tha Rue Chinese Shrine
Phuket Thailand
Vegatarian Festival underway
Help us get our book published.
Kickstarter an all-or-nothing funding model. If our project doesn’t reach its goal, then funds don’t get collected, and no money changes hands.
Chinese Shrines Phuket Thailand
Chinese Folk Religion
Book will document the shrines with emphasis on beauty .
I started visiting the shrines out of curiosity and photographing them several years ago. Certainly nothing like them in the USA. Coming from the Phuket International Airport on the main highway is Tha Rue. Most of the shrines are off the tourist path. Side streets and allies.
Kickstarter is a crowd source company for artist , writers, creative projects.
Multiple rewards for backers.
Book will be available as PDF, eBook and a hard copy. Approximately 80 to 120 pages. 8×10 image wrap cover printed by Blurb.
Mostly full page spread and some across double page. Printed on quality paper. Will add description each shrine and location.
My Goal is to preserve my art for my children in a physical format where they actually can hold vs digital format.

Peter Gets His Ass Grabbed On Top Of Mingun Pagoda
Since Burma’s history isn’t exactly common knowledge, let’s start by filling in some of your knowledge gaps.
What even is Mingun Pagoda?
Fair question. It’s not quite on the level of the Great Wall or the Pyramids, so most people have probably never heard of it. Construction started on the pagoda in 1790. The king that was building it was known to be a pretty odd guy, which might be a clue as to why this pagoda just looks so weird. The pagoda was built by slaves that were taken in battle by the Burmese. The standard for human rights back then was not what it is today (not that Burma has been much of a role model in that department recently), but even by their standards apparently, the labor conditions for this project were something of a humanitarian disaster. Indeed, the project was so brutal that a fake prophecy…

Peter Makes New Friends In Bagan: Sign Language & Soccer Games
Bagan is an amazing place, but seeing as Burma only opened to foreigners 4 years ago, it is not well known yet. If Angkor Wat is any indicator however, Bagan will become much more famous with time. Often drawing comparisons to Angkor, Bagan is famous for 1 thing: thousands of 9th century Buddhist temples and pagodas.
