$1937.99This is your own listing item.
"Butterflies flutter around the serene image of Buddha facing left depicted in golden hues - the color of the sun. Tanachai Ekuruchaitep works with acrylics to honor the great spiritual teacher through his art. The Thai artist is inspired by the portrayal of Buddha during the Sukhothai period (1238 to 1583), which was influenced by Sri Lankan monks. The Buddha images of this era featured such distinguishing characteristics as a flame over the head which itself was covered with finely curled hair. The oval face has high curving eyebrows, a hooked nose, a downward gaze, and a gentle smiling expression."

I love Thai culture very much. My works are always symbolic of Thailand. When I graduated, I freelanced for an advertising agency. They have given me a lot of work too, like creating backgrounds or paintings sets for a drama group or for television. It is a good job but I want to find something else. I'd love to live in a natural environment. My family home was surrounded by a garden and a canal. I had to live in a concrete building far from nature because of my job.
I've thought about my future. I love this job but I love to paint too. I'd love to live closer to nature and, one day, a friend invited me to live in the countryside. I found this place to be wonderful and I've start painting.
I have tried to study the culture of every region because they are very different from my own. I have traveled to many temples and got something from them - I found that Lanna (northern Thailand) murals, their lines, motifs and people are elegant and graceful. They make beautiful drawings and use excellent techniques. I want to capture that idea so I can adapt to it and that way be able to paint good compositions with acrylics. My favorite themes are the figure of Buddha and the northern Thai style. I'm always looking and thinking about color, composition, shape and idea. I have adapted the technique and blended old and new techniques as well as the northern and central regional styles and I have come up with a good style. Now I think I can find many ideas and everyone will love my work.
I'm not married yet but I feel free with this status. I'm excited to present my works on Novica. It's my new challenge and I hope foreigners will love my work.
