You too can have your photos beautifully drawn by young artist Vuthea to their amazing likeness, and in the process support and encourage his talent and skills.
Unfortunately, Vuthea does not speak English or have access to email so I have arranged for my personal assistant Sivnin to facilitate the transaction given her language skills as well as exposure to the non-Cambodian speaking, international community. I've asked that Sivnin charge a small commission for her time which is 100% hers to keep (inclusive of the prices listed below).
My contribution is purely pro bono in expanding the marketplace for Vuthea and opportunities for Sivnin... Well, I do derive the pleasure and benefits in furthering the arts and the opportunities of young Cambodians!!
Anyone who has visited me at home has seen the stairwell full of Chea Vuthea's portrait drawings of Cambodian children and dancers, right alongside iconic photographs given to me by Al Rockoff of Phnom Penh on 17 April 1975 and a few days before.
One person, 25 cm X 35 cm: US$25
US$25
US$60 (40 cm X 60 cm thick drawing paper)

I'd say Vuthea is one of a kind artist. Looking at the drawings and pictures I am awe struck by the striking similarity of them.
Thanks a lot for sharing.
If a picture is worth a thousand words...then Theary Seng's picture is worth much more!! You are truly an inspirational khmer woman figure.
What a talent he has..Wow!
Amazing. Good that he's recognized.
Apply your skill to the Walt of Disney.
I'm encourage to the gov. of Cambodia to link some smart people to Disney.
Khmer FL,
A new Khmer Artist is born.
Congratulations !
Cheers,

Vuthea is an amazing Khmer artist. I would love to see him draw me from my photograph. I don't mind to pay him top price in US dollars. Unfortunately, I am in the US and he is in Cambodia....! If I happen to travel to Cambodia next time, yes I will look for him.
Good talent people!
i really proud of you chea vuthea
Wonderful and amazing indeed. Yes, Vuthea should find a way to preserve and promote his gifted talent. It is a true God given talent that can be recognized by world organization of fine artists.
Congratulations and best of luck to you, and thanks to beautiful Theary for sharing the news.

This artist should be named Khmer Artisit the great, not Theary Seng. She has not done much to be qualified as a great Khmer woman none what so ever. Mu Soc Hua is the one not Theary Seng.
this man can draw really well. in america, if you can draw like him, you can make good living in photo shop or teaching arts, etc...
How Great You Are, Mr Chea Vuthea
You gonna be become khmer picaso.

Theary looks a lot like her pretty mother but Theary's nose exactly likes her father's nose.
You are on in to business too now, Theary? Damn, you're good, real good, if I may add...LOL! I mean it in a positive way...Can you do one for me too, Vuthea?
ms theary looks a bit like both her parents, actually. beautiful family. god bless.
Wow! he is good.
We are very sorry that communist Ho,Mao,Sihanouk had killed all our famous singers,sculptors,star and all artists.That you the new generation to restore your country.
congratulations to all khmer Surin,khmer krom,khmer kandal,keep your country in peace!Angkor Wat belong to you.
theary hardly has boops in real life. vuthea is generous to provide it to her in the drawing. but she got Monica Lewinsky libs for sure good for holding on to big and juicy cigars.
2:43pm,you're an animal go back to where you belong !
