the queen (2018) Painting by Wankanok Nuchangphuak

Hi, my name is Wankanok Nuchangphuak and i born and rise in a rural village in the deep east of Thailand.i got in touch with art when i was a child when i use to assist my father with his job of car painter and i totally felt in love of colours.after much practice on walls, chairs and every object that could be painted my parents bought in the local market a piece of canvas to get familiar with oil colours . i graduate in university BUNDITPATANASILPA INSTITUTE OF FINE ART

last winter, returning from a trip, I found my little wooden house half burned. I was shocked at all my work and my things were no longer there. despondency fell into my heart all was dark, during the cleaning and renovation I kept aside all the colored pieces of fabric and buttons that were not burnt and combinated with wonderfullnature all around me I made some paintings depicting the plants and flowers that surround my world I hope that these paintings inspire you to never give up, like for example the opuntia that grows in the ruins of the iron mine near my house.
