Original artwork description:

Ta Byrne was born in Thailand in 1974. artist & author Ta paints people not as you may know them but as dramatic, emotional, and sometimes theatrical but always with feelings and always special.  Her work is hanging on walls in 67 countries In addition to her success as an artist her book Egg Island is in the bookshops and available worldwide. 

In this whimsical creation, I blend the everyday with the fantastical, encapsulating a surreal expression of emotion through an ordinary object—an egg. The yolk serves as a radiant, oversized headpiece, disrupting norms and evoking a blend of wonder and introspection. This painting speaks to the layers of our identity, encouraging viewers to break free from conventional shells and reveal their unique inner selves. With its playful surrealism, it will surely inject a vibrant, thought-provoking energy into any space.
