Kittikorn

"Hello, I'm Kittikorn Kanjanakuha. I'm son of Uthai Kanjanakuha, also a Novica featured artist. His work represents the rich artistry of Thailand, and now it's my turn to inherit this type work from him.

"I was born March 28, 1978 and I completed high school in my hometown. After studying university in Thailand, I went to Australia, where I graduated with a Master's degree in Economics. When I was there, I took a part-time job as a waiter in a Thai restaurant, which enabled me to meet a lot of people and learn all about them. It was a great experience.

"I returned to Thailand in 2003 and decided to work for my father at his workshop. I preferred to work for him rather than for somebody else because it is run by the family and I can acquire experience at every stage of production.

"I've had to learn every aspect of the method. For me it's been a great challenge! I love to design and create more and more new styles that can be developed into actual products. My work has a distinct style and it's completely hand-crafted."
