BUCKLEE BELL'S ARTWORK

From Chiang  Mai  with  love  for  Curlews
Emails   from  American   artist  , bead and  ethnic textile  expert, Bucklee   Bell , explode  across the   screen  when  opened in the   Little Darwin  increasingly  cluttered  den . An example  is  the  above  latest  new  poster  for   his  ethnographic  arts  business , Kesorn Arts,  in  Chiang  Mai, Thailand. In his latest dispatch  he reported   the    ricefields   are   swaying in the  breeze after a long and  cloudy rainy season .  He  also  sent  his regards to  the Magnetic Island  Curlews , saying  he  supports  Curlew Power . One of the prominent  counter culture cartoonists  in  the l960-l970s Underground  Comix  period  in San Francisco  and  Berkeley,  California , along with  Robert Crumb ,  subjects for   Bucklee's    distinctive  art  include  politics, war, the environment , Monsanto .
