BACKGROUND

The whole story started when he was allowed to play with his mommy's artist-grade water-soluble wax pastels in September 2005. It was a great fun for him to scratch and then paint with water using various techniques his mom taught e.g. drip, drop, splash, sprinkle, spray, and many more. To his parent’s surprise, the output was far much better than they had ever expected.

SUCCESS STORY

Seeing those beautiful works, his mom cropped, cut, designed the background and assembled the original art piece to the front to make greeting cards and started selling them. Those original art greeting cards were very successful. Within a couple weeks last year, about one thousand cards were sold.

WORLD'S YOUNGEST ARTIST SOLO ART EXHIBITION

In order to prepare building up stock for 2007 New Year’s greeting cards, he started creating new paintings since early January 2006 using new media and materials. Then, he surprised everyone again. This time, he had created lots of big paintings (some are the whole piece of watercolor paper as large as 50x70 cm. or 74x94 cm. with frame) which were too beautiful to be cut into small pieces.

His colorful abstract paintings impressed many people including professional artists and the Managing Director of TRSC International Lasik Center, Thailand, offered to host a solo art exhibition for him in April 2006. The show named 'Boundless Imagination'.

MEDIA EXCITEMENT : TALK OF THE TOWN

The exhibition stirred the excitement of all media in Thailand because he is possibly the world's youngest artist who ever have a solo art exhibition all by himself. The show was very successful and his 84 beautiful works impressed everyone. It drew a lot of visitors and inspired many parents not to over look any sparkling hint unintentionally showed by their kids. Almost half of the paintings were sold too.

Dhanat and his parents got interviewed on many TV programs, leading newspapers (two of them, his story appeared on the first cover page) various magazines, many radio programs and the reporters still keep coming even nowadays.

In addition to those success, Dhanat got many awards for his special abilities e.g. the 'Model Kid' award from a kid's TV program named 'House of Good Kids', one from Nestle company in the Bear brand's 'Can Do' campaign, and 'Brand Smart Kid' from Celebos company.
