"One reviewer states that the background is really black. Your photo shows it as a dark blue. That is not just a computer variation. What is the background color - blue or black?"
This looks stunning in our family room. It's absolutely gorgeous. My only complaint is that the wood of the outer frame seems very lightweight and fragile.

Story Behind the Art:
For my paintings, I like the northern Thai style because I was born here - it's always in my way of thinking and in my heart. My name is Parinya Nanjai. I'm a northern Thai guy, born October 19, 1971. My parents are both teachers, and in my family I am the only one who loves to paint. I have one older sister, who works for an airline and she sells my paintings to her friends in other countries - this is how I earn my living. I live with my wife, who works in a restaurant. We have one son and I know very well that we need more income for the future. To explain myself, I can only say that I was born to be a Lanna(northern Thai) artist. When I was in primary school I was interested in science, but I realized that wasn't what I wanted so I went on to a technical art school. I studied only painting, but the school encouraged us to study something more specific for a career in the industrial age. My teacher suggested I study textile design and, because Thai children respect adults, I did. But it wasn't for me and, after only a year, I couldn't take any more. I transferred to a university where I studied communications. It wasn't what I loved, but I needed a degree in something because I'd changed my mind too many times. Finally, after six years, I graduated.
We can essentially learn about art on our own, through everything that surrounds us – nature, culture, everything. Anyway, a few years of art in the technical school taught me to love painting and I know this work is best for me. For my paintings, I like the northern Thai style because I was born here - it's always in my way of thinking and in my heart. I have tried other styles but they didn't look right. After a while, I stopped using other styles. When I work, I have no model; I rely on my imagination. I paint from my own thoughts, and the Lanna style is always on my mind. I am Thai, so depicting Thai culture and religion is my nature. I also collect Buddhist lockets as a hobby. I have a lot of friends who work in the same field. They always enter their work in competitions, but that isn't necessary for me. I think that we judge art work for its beauty, not for the person who did it. So awards aren't important to me.

Acrylic Painting
The painting is well done and I do like it. However, the picture of the painting on Great Offer Stock displays a primarily blue background with some black shading around the edges. The painting I received is completely black with the tree and lions gold. I would have sent it back but the packaging would have been very difficult to put back together once I took the painting out. I don't hate the black, but the painting in all black and gold just does not have the same dimension as the blue/gold/black edges. I gave it a 5-star rating because I commend the artist. It is the fault of Great Offer Stock for displaying, or sending, the wrong color.
