For a long time, he was drawing every day just because he loved drawing, but he didn’t know what to draw for, so he stopped drawing, and at this time, he did not imagine then that it was possible to make a career in painting. But his pencil itched, and he started drawing again.

During years of elementary school, even as he felt guilty, he decided to steal a picture of Hanuman in his classroom, for training, at home, to draw this main character of the famous epic of Phralak Phralam.
Later, an adult suggested him to also paint Buddha images and to sell it to earn money. Thus, he opened a book of Buddhist literature and began to paint scenes of Buddhism. Afterwards a monk told him that he had a real talent for drawing and the venerable invited him to study fine arts to develop his skills.

But a dramatic event in his life changed his sources of inspiration and he turned towards the mythological world of Nagas. One day, drowning in a river, he almost died, fortunately he survived, and for him it was Naga, guardian of the rivers who saved him from the water.
Curious, he asked his father why we never see the Nagas if they live in rivers, they are there to protect us not to be seen. So, he decided to draw them as a mark of respect and to honor them for having saved him.

Thenceforth, his parents having understood the importance of art in their son’s life, authorized him to follow this path and helped him to pursue artistic studies. He was then able to realize his childhood dream and see the possibility of a career linked to drawing emerge. Since then, his colorful paintings navigate in dreamlike and mythological depths, mixing Buddhism and local legends.

Art for him is a teaching of life and a permanent questioning of oneself and the world surrounding us.
