Railey Beach, Thailand. It's early morning, just got setup and comfortable to paint while sitting on the beach (10 min process). Out of nowhere comes a young Swedish couple that sit down 10 feet from me with two kids under 3yrs. I'm like, "what the hell do you think you're doing, you've got this whole beach and you choose to sit right next to me". They didn't move and the little boy comes and stands behind me watching me paint. Then 30 minutes later some american comes up and sees me painting and looks over my shoulder... I say, "come on dude... just leave me alone". He says, "your an asshole" and walks off. I don't know how I was able to concentrate that day but this has bitter-sweet memories for me.
