The red violinist (2020) Oil painting by Ta Byrne

Original artwork :“The longer you look at an object, the more abstract it becomes, and, ironically, the more real.” Lucian FreudI don’t live in London, Hong Kong, New York, Monaco, Monte Carlo, Tokyo Sydney or Singapore, but I’ve sent my work there. In fact I’ve now sent my work to 46 countries, not bad for a girl from the rice fields of Thailand.I love painting people, but I don’t want to just paint portraits, I want my people to have a bit of character, a little of the night about them I want them to be special, I also want an art deco sort of surrealism feel to it, for you to see something different every time you look at it, I wanted it to hold your imagination.I love it that I can be bold and experiment with the colours the form the mannerism and be free of all inhibitions, I want them to look comfortable with lots of pleasing curves, ageless, of indeterminate origin or nationality, but above all at ease with themselves.COMMISSIONS: I would be delighted to create you a unique work, whatever size you need or colour palette.
