The expression “to have egg on one’s face” means to look foolish or feel embarrassed. But what if that egg on your face was actually quite becoming? What if it belonged there? It’s not likely…unless you’re speaking about the work of artist Ta Thimkaeo. A fried egg can only have so many expressions, Ta likens it to the mask humans wear to obscure their feelings and emotions. Blanc Magazine. How my Eggs came about: one day I was frying an egg and thought that would make a great face…It bought back memories of when I was a kid…. When I was a kid at school, we would have to take our lunch box as there were no kitchen or cooking facilities when the dinner bell rang we would all sit on the floor to eat our lunch. Almost every day I had a fried egg on rice, the other kids would say, ‘Ta fried egg again, you will begin to start looking like a fried egg’. I used to plead with my sister to have something different, but we had many chickens and many eggs, so it was always fried egg on rice. I have sent my work to over 32 countries and some significant landmarks such as Berkeley Square in London’s Mayfair, 5th Ave New York, Malibu beach in California and from Washington to LA. Hong Kong, Mexico, Monaco and Singapore, in fact, one of my best collectors are in Amsterdam which is not short of great artist or galleries; I’m very proud of that.

Ta Byrne is a Thai artist who lives and works on the beautiful island of Koh Samui, just off the south coast of Thailand. Her Oil Paintings . are vibrant, eye-catching and packed with a sense of fun and humour. Ta takes humans as her focal point in her Figurative Painting but abstracts these figures by distorting them and using a cartoonish style to create a more humorous feel. While her work is mostly representational, she incorporates Surrealist elements in many of her paintings, making her one of the most exciting artists working in Thailand today. Ta comes from humble beginnings, living out her childhood on the rural outskirts of Bangkok as a farmer's daughter. During her teen years, she worked sewing shirts in a Bangkok sweatshop, and it was during this time that she met an old street artist who invited her to his studio. This sparked her desire to become an artist, and since then, she has gone on to produce Abstract and Cubist paintings that have received international acclaim from art connoisseurs.
