In nature, lights
and colors are always in relation. As all objects of nature are touched
by light, it will express different colors which are changing according
to the seven different colors in nature. An easy example is when sunlight
is distorted in mists, it will reflect different colors as we know commonly
as rainbows. Or when objects surrounding us are shown upon with light,
it will reflect the colors of the object. We can clearly see that light,
colors, and shadows are in relation with all objects and are a harmonious
part of nature.
"Nature is
mysterious, magnificent and full of incomparable beauty"; these
are the inspiration of art.
To express the impressions which are different from each point of perspective,
by creating art with confidence and experience through colors, light,
and brush stroke upon canvas. Filled with true feelings for the objects
in view, expressing place, time, light and movement of atmosphere, becoming
beautiful and lively works of art.
This collection is a gathering of oil
paintings created between the years 1995-2003, which I painted because
of my good impressions during my travels, seeing beautiful nature in
various provinces. I have chosen to paint these memorable beautiful
scenes which gave me various feelings at different places and time.
I hope that these paintings will give the viewers happiness and elation,
or that it would stimulate more development of art circle in Thailand.
Presently, we can see many more branches
of art. Sometimes it is difficult to categorize the branch of art of
each picture, just like any other subject of knowledge, which is always
developing and changing.
However, for paintings, most Thai artists utilize
one popular kind of paintings since when this method was first introduced
in Thailand. That method is impressionism, which is based on real visions
of nature. Artists also developed techniques of using colors, light
according to scientific findings. Details are neglected, giving only
the general atmosphere and feeling created by colors and light all around.
The forms appearing in these paintings are depicted from both the vision
of nature and the impression of the artist at the certain moment.
Even though impressionism originated in Europe,
then spreaded to America and Asia including Thailand a long time ago,
we must realize that many artists and viewers of art in Thailand are
fond of this method of paintings. That is why impressionism has always
been popular and will still be in the future.
The
collection of sceneries paintings from 1995-2003 brings out the warmth
of nature, sunlight and changing colors; maling us realize and appreciate
the beauty and value of nature which cannot be replaced.
