The Vichienkets - Thailand's leading family of artists - are showing 70 paintings and large and small bronze sculptures at the Sukosol Bangkok's City Gallery until March 17.

Son Yannapol reveals his sense of humour in drawings of everyday household items, and his brothers Nithi and Nathee show paintings using unusual combinations of colours.
