Library, Sankhu, Nepal

Was this really a library that lended books, videos and/or music CDs or simply a shop selling these products? The name has faded a bit but looks as if it could be "Bajra."

Ikt Soki, Ubud, Indonesia

I Ketut Soki is a famous Balinese painter (his website is here) and was one of the founders in the 1960s of the Young Artists movement. So this potentially ambiguous painted sign does not indicate he paints young fellow artists but that, as a painter, he belongs to that Young Artists movement.

Hand Batik Painting, Ubud, Indonesia

I didn't take a photo of all the painted signs I saw in Bali but this one caught my eye thanks to the Buddhist monk represented on it. After De'Goes Salon, this is another business whose owner goes by the name of Ketut (see yesterday's post for more info about this name).
