Yai's Artwork

Here at Black Ivory we love art and coffee which is why we display the beautiful artwork done by our barista Yai Saksit . Yai is a self taught artist from Thailand, and he has been doing art for over 40 years now! Yai loves drawing portraits using charcoal powder, but he also love painting pop art.
