She has a big following in Thailand, but this scene has only recently discovered her. She does a lot of commercial work but not anything like movie posters, so these are mostly dream projects for her that also happen to pay the bills. Personally don't see any reason for her to move to official prints and lose a cut of her pay to whoever's hiring her.tranito wrote:I hope she gets hired to do some official stuff. She deserves a shot at the big league level. Too much talent to be secluded in a hype-my-latest-commission thread.
The art she did for the Thai Airways 2015 calendar is incredible! If they were individual prints each one would be on the wall in our house. You can check it out on Behance.Bikejoh wrote:She has a big following in Thailand, but this scene has only recently discovered her.

Nonsense! Those comishers got clout yo.Kramerica wrote:That works both ways. I think it someone like Mondo tapped her to make an officially licensed poster, it would skyrocket her career. It provides much more opportunity for exposure and recognition when it is done officially and through recognized outlets rather than smaller private commissions.

Yeah, I see what you're saying. You can draw comparisons to other foreign Mondo artists like Kilian, who had an established career before working with Mondo, but I wouldn't have known about him if it weren't for Mondo. She does seem to be doing well and getting plenty of work.. so if Mondo did approach her, I'm not really sure how she would react.Kramerica wrote:That works both ways.

. I agree though, super talented and really nice. I've talked to her a few times and told her it's really amazing to see a Thai artist in this scene. I'm half Thai myself, so we fudge chatted about that and our mutual love of video games haha. I'm really excited to see what she does with all the commissions she's been booked for. I have "The Fall" hanging in my living room right now, and have two more of her pieces in my bedroom.
