A Botanical Artist’s Studio in Thailand FILLED with Charming Plants | Amazing Watercolor Drawings!

In this episode, I visit Nate - a talented and passionate watercolor botanical artist, whose studio can be found within Baan Kang Wat - an artist village in Chiang Mai. Nate’s charming studio is adorned with live plants and fantastic works of art. While I don’t have the patience to take up this craft, botanical artistry is something I adore with all my heart. I was ecstatic when Nate agreed to be interviewed to share his insights and experience.
In the later half of the episode, I take you on a virtual plant tour in and around his enchanting plant-filled studio.

    I also have a little studio/workspace at home and am trying to get more plants in there! I'm a fashion designer and handknitter so I need lots of space and I also need to keep things clean! I would also like frame and hang all the prints I've gotten from art fairs these past few years. I love how Nate uses the industrial metal and concrete with aged wood. Looks great with all his plants! I need to go antiquing!

He seems to just let them do their thing without fussing over them. Mr . Sean , if possible could you dig into the soils and tell us what’s being used - the way you explain the peanuts on top of the soil. 😅😊 thanks *** I don’t live in the tropics, so I need all the help I can find or get.***

    Love this place. Thanks for the video. I recently went to Phuket and a friend’s friend is a dentist. We went to his clinic which is an estate and the outdoor area is an absolute jungle! I spotted beautiful philodendrons that indoor people usually train up moss poles but in this case is growing up trees. Too bad I didn’t stay much longer to really check out his garden.
