Colours of the Andaman Art Exhibition

Location: Hotel Lobby, Sole Mio Boutique Hotel & Wellness, Bangtao, Phuket

Sole Mio Boutique Hotel & Wellness is pleased to present a collection by Thai artist Soontorn Boonopars, whose paintings celebrate the beauty of Thailand’s coastal landscapes through expressive Impressionist techniques.

With more than 30 years of artistic experience, Soontorn captures the atmosphere of the Andaman region using vibrant colours, textured brushstrokes, and natural light. His paintings invite viewers to experience familiar destinations from a fresh perspective, where each scene reflects both the beauty of nature and the artist’s emotional connection to the places he has visited.

Inspired by beaches, islands, viewpoints and coastal scenery, his works balance realism with expressive brushwork, allowing every painting to convey movement, light and the unique character of Southern Thailand.
