Supanee first introduced her “Dream Art” to the public at an exhibition in Thailand in aid of the Red Cross. Following on from the success of this first exhibit Supanee has gone on to show her works of art at numerous public and private events. Always in aid of her favorite charities. Her works now adorn the walls of many private patrons and public buildings, such as banks, offices and hospitals and on the Internet for everyone to enjoy.

Supanee’s works have been described as “unique” that they “combine both art and emotion reminiscent of Dualist presentation or impressionism. “Some view her works as an artistic curiosity, others the object of inspiration. Some simply see the dreamscapes of a talented artist. All agree that the vibrant colours and shapes defy convention. We will leave you to find them in your own truths and look forward to seeing you in Cambridge.
