Natchai Posrila’s paintings depict Thailand’s wealth of tropical nature. Coming from Nong Khai, one of the small villages on the Mekong River in northeastern Thailand, he has a natural aptitude for art. His first artistic experience came with the opportunity to paint and repair temple murals. Natchai went on to find work with galleries in Samui, Phuket, and Bangkok, where he specialized in commissioned portraits and reproductions of the “master artists” in oils.
His technical experience and inner drive to create and reflect the beauty of nature became the core of an unconventional art education, producing a highly skilled yet refreshingly confident and affirmative artist. Natchai’s paintings have been described as simultaneously traditional and modern. His works have an explosive and unique quality of composition and colour. He has had many solo exhibitions throughout Thailand as well as in Western Australia.
