Biography
Jacky Phaengtho, artist
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. Now , it is time to display his paintings, many of which were not seen before. 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.
Phaengtho is now preparing for several art exhibits. His male and female nudes on canvas and homemade paper are a new series that looks at the human body in a sensuous way; he continues to paint these voluptuous works of art for exhibitions at Fortune Hotel and River City Hall, Bangkok.
Recently, he apprenticed under Kai Kingsley III, international artist. After two years working with Kingsley, he discovered his true love for acrylic and oil paint on canvas and special paper. Phaengtho’s work at Gaysorn, and Pikture Gallery, Bangkok has put him in touch with his inner artist and developing his art career far into the future.
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.
