the guys been learning from Trump, and its works, theres his painting in the media with plenty of comments from the GOM club

Alai wah?

When I saw the headlines I thought of one of the elite in Bangkok having his classic painting from the 16th or 17th century authenticated by the great and knowledgable Thai Art Professor and his assistance s while the rest of the art world said it was a fake and not a very good one at that..He still claims that it is worth $40,000,000 . That is dollars not baht. 55555

what he ask's is irrelevant in Thailand as his drawing.

I have to give the guy credit for getting the media to publish this story.
That in itself is as amazing as the price he's asking.

nothing to see here

Let the guy put whatever price-tag he wants. It is his work - his price... You don't like it ? Don't buy it... it is that simple

please don't spoil the fun !!

The good captain told them to be innovative.. this is what you get ???

At least they have colour

I think those images are symmetrical and The Eye of Legend more geometrical.

Typically, hand-drawn geometric drawings take a long time to produce depending of course on the size of the canvas, but six years! I suspect what contributes to the value of a drawing or painting is whether or not the artist is well known or 'recognised' by art critics or people who are known and respected for evaluating such works of art.

Positive endorsement of this kind would consist of the critic or expert seeing in the work the ability of it to make a powerful impact on the viewer, to arouse or engender an emotional response which may be resultant from the artist's ability in the use of colour, perspective, symbolism, capturing the essence of something as in Impressionism, the depiction of light as with Turner or some other appeal.

For me this drawing is an unsuccessful attempt at combining styles such as Cubism and Naive and forms only an uncohesive mish-mash of geometric patterns which would warrant a title such as 'The Eye of Geometrical collage' or 'A discordant study of geometric patterns with eye'.

Regarding value; I'd put it at about Baht 30,000. and I also think that the whole concept would have been better expressed as an instillation.

This is not the first time Pinid has tried to sell the painting. In 1996, he sat on the street near Silpakorn University in Bangkok and tried to sell the drawing for THB19 million, according to NNT.

Panid said a foreign couple stopped their car to check out the artwork. They offered THB10 million, but he refused

I used to do stuff like that in my teens. Why do people have to be so greedy? Best way to get some real money for artwork is to die, though with a name like Pinid Kaewklaeye it's not gonna be easy. You should've taken the 10, you nitwit!

That foreign couple was me and mam'. And we offered him 10mil Lao Kip!! Not thb... We just came back from Laos and didn't know what to with the money we had left.......

This guy sells excrements:

He made it a bizzare story by asking a ridiculous price.

Actually pretty smart when you think about it.

It now has exposure and people commenting and thats what he set out to do.

I guess if it gets enough publicity, some dough-head will pay something for it.

better than gathering dust in the garage

Hang on, don,t judge the guy without knowing the fact ! How many square feet is it ?

I have found many people have a very over estimated value of items they have control over /own. The norm seems to be land, house,

vehicle, especially motorcycle, their body, their time, knowledge (what little they have), etc.

The abundance and the need of middlemen seems to bring things back into prespective quite quickly. Most of these people do not know

where to go to unload their junk, so they wait on a middleman to relieve them of their goodies and take what is offered.

'... I found a quote that said ‘it is not important what I took with me from this world but rather what I left for it," the artist wrote on Facebook.' Is he referring to his drawing, I wonder ... or the B88m he's hoping for?

'They eye of geometrical collage' or 'dog sh** on my shoe'

I have a bagel for sale for 5,000 Dollars

I Hope he will buy it when he sells the Painting

So a bunch of pen colored squares and circles and shapes that he started doodling with as a little kid is now considered valuable art work. Or is he asking money because he actually opened a book and found a quote that led him to ask people what it meant?

I realize I am being critical but jeez!

so he's actually following in the footsteps of the enlightened and culturally superior west whereby abstract art is worth millions even more than his painting. Would you say the same thing about picasso's works even though they look physically the same as his drawings or are as abstract as his work.

I'm sure if anybody offered him more that 20,000 he would take it. His whole story reeks of bullshit.

How old was he when he lost all sense of reality? Were drugs involved? Bad Pork? Ass wipe.

He may even find an idiot to buy it after all somebody had to buy the first Andy Warhol whether they liked the soup or not.

I got one for JT

"Panid said a foreign couple stopped their car to check out the artwork. They offered THB10 million, but he refused"

555, right. Now you know this guy is full of khrap.

Actually 88MB is very cheap. It's a Time Machine.

If it was doodled as a pre-teen like this one was I would say exactly the same... this is not art.. it is a bored kid coloring shapes instead of doing his school work.

Of course he knows its not going to sell for millions. But look at the publicity he got for himself.

you mean, like an award for idiot of the year ?

Thailand has public libraries?

This boy has got to be dreaming, he should reduce the price by 20 million for quick sale 555

The boy is not one hundred percent, as one of my Thai friends says about people who are crazy or half wits.
