Story Behind the Art:

'My name is 'Wittaya,' although my full name is Pongwittaya Panthakul. I'm the first son of six children - my father is Chinese and my mother is Thai. I didn't go to university so instead, I began to work at one of the biggest arts and crafts showrooms. Eventually I learned to craft a variety of items, and through hard work and dedication I soon became an expert. My work is intended to showcase our local customs and our Thai traditions. My reasons for working have to do more with social aspects - I love to have many friends! Now, after much hard work I have my own workshop and I have been able to offer jobs to a few people in my community.'
