Sujarit Hirankul was a recognised Thai painter for his impressionist paintings. His paintings have been auctioned at Christie’s Thailand, and also a number of auction houses in the United States. Hirankul’s signature is painting with a palette knife and very, very thick application of paint, making his artworks heavily textured and three-dimensional, and instantly recognisable.
