Abstract
This research aims to 1) study the history, Buddhist beliefs about the Traibhumi Hell or
Nirayabhumi and the composition of art in painting works, 2) create artwork related to the Buddhist
beliefs about the Traibhumi Hell or Nirayabhumi, and 3) create teaching media on techniques,
materials, and equipment, and processes for creating visual art works to support learning and
creating acrylic paintings at the high school level.
The research process is divided into 3 steps as follows: 1) studying and researching data
from research documents and artworks, 2) creating art thesis works and creating teaching media,
and 3) presenting creative works and teaching media.
The results of the research showed that:

and artworks about hell from the Traibhumi picture book, Ayutthaya version - Thonburi version,
found that the researcher reflected and confronted the suffering from the accident he had

that appear in the works can convey feelings and ideas about hell in a profound and powerful
manner. It also helps create a connection between the researcher's personal experiences and
religious beliefs.

compositions that show imbalance, and the use of red and black tones to convey the feeling of
hellfire and the consequences of actions.

process of painting the atmosphere with acrylic paint, preparing equipment, sketching, and painting
