Altered Grounds #159, c. 2010
Mixed media on wood
24 x 20 x 1 in.
Robert “Bob” Thomas was an accomplished artist from Edgecomb known for his textured paintings of old walls in Beirut, Lebanon and his use of color to capture Maine’s landscapes.
His paintings have been shown in galleries across Maine including the artist-owned Stable Gallery in Damariscotta. Mr. Thomas became an artist after years of living in Beirut, then working as a writer and media relations specialist for companies ranging from AT&T and Intel to New Jersey Bell and Ashland Oil.
Mr. Thomas began painting around 2007 and immersed himself in Maine’s art community. He was known for textured paintings, influenced by the old walls of Beirut and the colors of Maine.
Daniel Kany, an art historian and freelance writer for the Portland Press Herald, said he met Thomas in 2008 when the artist walked into Kany’s gallery and insisted on showing his paintings. Kany described his work as spare and spiritual.
“It is about texture, depth and grit,” Kany said in an email. “He wittily inverts the idea of a thousand year-old wall with new posters pasted on it: He takes a fresh panel coated in bright white gesso and puts a built-up material form that could be an ancient wall or ground, organic, dessicated and mineral. Bob’s painting progressed with fresh-mowed quickness. …”
His paintings have appeared in the River Arts in Damariscotta, the Saccarappa Art Collective in Westbrook, Studio 53 Fine Art in Boothbay Harbor, Southport Memorial Library and other galleries.
