Artist Profile

Through his art, Thomas seeks to create a reflection of time and place—an emotional postcard. Working primarily with acrylics and watercolors, he captures the shifting light, vibrant color, and subtle human interactions between atmosphere and environment. His paintings explore both architectural and natural structures, inviting viewers into a new palette, a new melody, as the seasons change.

Born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, Thomas began creating art at an early age, inspired by nature and books. Later, he mastered the art of airbrushing and traveled throughout Oklahoma and neighboring states, painting t-shirts at festivals. Today, his focus remains on acrylics and watercolors. Often painting en plein air, Thomas can be found with sketchbook in hand, recording sights and impressions. These sketches frequently evolve into larger works, capturing the essence and spontaneity of the ever-changing world
