When I travel, I like to take photographs of places, people, and details that speak to me. Faces, landscapes, and small moments often carry a quiet resonance. Once I’m back home, I save the images that feel most alive in a special folder. Some of them wait there for years, until the right time comes to paint them. They become a kind of archive of impressions, memories waiting to be transformed into canvases.
For a while, I had been wanting to paint a landscape. When I revisited my photographs from Railay Beach in Thailand, I knew the moment had arrived. The cliffs rising above the bay, the long-tail boats resting on the water, and the sky shifting through its colors all carried a sense of guardianship and serenity. That was the seed forGuardians of Railay.
The Story Behind the Painting
Railay is a place where nature feels protective yet gentle. The limestone cliffs seemed to watch over the sea, while the boats carried stories of pause and journey. Painting this scene was a way to honor that memory and to share the gratitude I felt standing there.
