Chakrabhand Posayakrit9s portrait paintings have been a notable part of his
oeuvre since his time as a student at Vajiravudh College. His early works often
depicted individuals from his personal circle. Over time, his focus expanded
to idealized figures, characters from Thai literature, novels, and narratives from
the life of the Buddha. Some pieces capture the atmosphere of Thai traditional
dancers preparing for a performance, reminiscent of the late 18 th-century
European Impressionist artists who depicted the enchanting scenes behind the
ballet theater. Chakrabhand conveyed these portraits with shimmering colors
and bright hues, creating a soft and delicate ambiance. His works blend Western
anatomical and perspective accuracy with his unique, gentle aesthetic.
