Jakthon   PHAENGTHO

BORN             :  in 1977

Mr. Phaengtho realized his artistic ability at an early age. He  loved to draw and see the world with an artist’s eye. At seventeen, while working in Singapore for several years, Phaengtho  became friends with  local artists. When he came back to Bangkok, he joined other Thai artists, and helped many to exhibit their art work.  Time to display his paintings came quickly: his oil paintings are bursting with vibrant, oil color, and his people and scenes are a fresh look at the world  through young eyes that are clearly open. Recently, he apprenticed under Kai Kingsley III, international artist.

After three years working with Kingsley, he discovered his true love for acrylic and oil paint on canvas. Phaengtho’s work at  Gaysorn, and  Pikture Gallery, Bangkok has  put him in touch with his inner artist and developing his art career. Now, Jacky, as his friends call him, has several solo shows to his credit, as well as many private collectors. Discovered by Japanese publications for his paintings of the human nude, his style did not stop there. He also creates abstracts, and semi-abstracted works on canvas. A future list of offers to display his work is developing in Phuket, London and other European and Asian cities.
