The conspirators  阴谋者

Suthamma (Ta) Thimkaeo, Thailand
“It would be easier for me to walk on the moon than to become an artist’, Ta once said.
She grew up in a rural farming village, with little or no access to electricity and clean source of water. Today, Ta’s paintings hang in private and public collections around the world. Including some iconic places like; New York, London, Paris, Dubai, Shanghai and Sydney. In fact, She has sent her work to over 50 countries now. She is also the No 1 best seller with ArtFinder and Singulart, and one of the most outstanding emerging artists of Saatchi Art. "Not bad for a girl from the rice fields," she reckoned. 

“The Egg lady was the original Egg, Ta often paints late at night and I go to bed early, I got up one morning and popped into Ta’s studio and saw the egg lady. I said to Ta that will never sell, no-one is going to buy that. I put it for sale it sold within hours we were inundated and sold many Eggs all round the world. ” Gary, husband of Ta.

The yule 聖誕

Dayna Chua, 21
Pursuing her passion in art, which developed from the tender age of four, Dayna used different styles and medium of painting techniques to create the mood for when she was inspired. Each to a class by itself, distinct and fluid.

Founder, CAMELLIA茗岩®
This is derived from a doodle. Using charcoal, which is essential in the making of traditional oolong, to interpret the Nine Bend River that runs through the Wuyi Scenic Area where the tea is thriving. It reminds us of the origins, and to always stay true. It too resembles a snake, symbolising continuity and creativity.
