Artist Bio: Through his paintings, Thomas explores how familiar subjects can become slightly unfamiliar when reduced to simple forms and gestures. Drawing inspiration from the clarity and freedom of children’s drawings, he focuses on bold colour, surface texture and direct mark?making rather than polished or literal outcomes. This approach continues to guide how each work is conceived, built and resolved.
