Already in 1904 Cascella entered D'Annunzio's circle with Basilio, working in the lithography of Pescara to create the graphics for the Abruzzese magazine L'Illustrazione (1899-1907). From the early period of Pescara, various watercolors depicting life in the small Portanuova, scenes of fishing on the river, and images of the former Bourbon fortress are remembered by Tommaso. Tommaso Cascella made his debut in 1906 at the National Exhibition of Fine Arts in Milan with his brother Michele Cascella, exhibiting 42 pastels to regional subjects, which were then also exhibited in Rome and Florence. In Florence his first works were successful, and he set up the exhibition "Artistic family", always with a typically Abruzzese subject. Thus Tommaso was able to participate in the 3rd Exhibition of Italian artists in Florence in 1907-1908, then in the Rome Exhibition, and in 1909 at the Salon d'automne in Paris. In 1912 Tommaso Cascella created the real canvases: The echo of the mountains - Mercede after the story - Abruzzese wedding procession, preserved in the Civic Museum Cascella in Pescara, in 1914 he joined Michele, under the direction of Father Basilio, from the Great Abruzzo illustration of Pescara, which lasted only a year, due to the Great War, in fact Thomas himself left for the French front, being arrested as a spy by the French, but freed thanks to the intercession of D 'Annunzio; being subsequently also sent to the Front in London and Germany, Cascella did not miss the opportunity to paint postcards of a war nature, which were exhibited in the Quirinal Palace in 1918.
