Thailand Printmaking Festival 2025

July 19, 2025

I was at the recent Thailand Printmaking Festival 2025, held at Central Chidlom in Bangkok, Thailand. It was a great showcase of artistic talent and different printmaking techniques. For anyone passionate about art, design, or unique handmade creations, this event was truly a highlight.

Take a virtual stroll through the event with me! You can get a feel for the atmosphere and see some of the incredible exhibits in my Instagram Reel walking tour:

Imagine stepping into a busy hall filled with different printmaking methods, from traditional techniques to contemporary approaches. That’s exactly what attendees experienced at the Thailand Printmaking Festival. It was a rare opportunity to see numerous Bangkok print studios and talented printmaking artists gathered in one convenient location, something that’s usually impossible to do with studios scattered across the city.

The festival was a treasure trove for art enthusiasts, featuring:

  • Framed art and art prints displayed and available for purchase.
  • Ceramics and other handmade art alongside the print works.
  • Interactive workshops and activity spaces where visitors could try their hand at rubber stamping and journaling. These hands-on activities brought the art of printmaking to life for everyone.

I loved the energy at the Thailand Printmaking Festival 2025. It really showed me that printmaking in Thailand is a thriving art. It’s more than just a technique; it’s an dynamic art form constantly evolving. Seeing so many dedicated artists and studios exhibiting their design processes and finished works reaffirmed the appeal and creativity within the printmaking community in Thailand.

Events like these are fantastic opportunities to discover new artists, explore different printmaking techniques, and even bring home a unique piece of art. I hope to be back in Bangkok for future creative festivals like this. Scroll down for more photos of the event!

I was expecting sunflower yellow… 🌻    Instead, Su I was expecting sunflower yellow… 🌻 
 
Instead, Sunflower Fields surprised me with a warm amber that turns into a burnt-orange shade as it dries. It’s like an entire sunflower field under the late afternoon sun. 
 
It’s warm and earthy, and I can see that it’s perfect for autumn journal spreads, cozy letters, and sketchbook accents. I tried to paint a rose with it, too! 
 
Sometimes the best inks are the ones that don’t match our expectations.

While the Shibuya and Ginza branches are popular, I found the Ikebukuro location easier to browse because it felt less crowded during my visit. It also had a great selection of notebooks, pens, inks, and journaling supplies, so I never felt like I was compromising by skipping the busier stores. 
 
It’s four levels within the Seibu Department Store and is just beside the train station. There’s also a small cafe where my kids hung out, while my husband and I took turns shopping.  
 
If you only had time for one Loft, which would you choose?

✨ Kakimori Inks, first impressions! I finally got ✨ Kakimori Inks, first impressions!

I finally got to try the two inks I picked up from @kakimori_japan in Tokyo—Tototo, a rich deep magenta, and Harvest Gold, a warm golden mustard.

Both are beautifully saturated and flowed effortlessly with my glass pen from @auneda. Which one would you add to your collection? 💛💜

Practice has been non-existent lately, hence my uncial’s a little shaky. So I’m pairing this with some Michael Jackson to make up for it.  
 
Friday night means we get to order kebabs for dinner and afterwards I can sit and watch Netflix while eating a slice of sticky chocolate cake (which I learned is a Swedish recipe, and I made it myself).  
 
Yay weekend!
