About the Item
Artist Comments
A young boy loses track of time building a sandcastle. He starts in the morning, and when he finally realizes it's time for a lunch break, it's already dinnertime. Undeterred, he persists and continues working for a couple more hours until he finishes and heads home. Simultaneously, the gorgeous sunset paints the beach in vivid orange hues.
About the Artist
Alabama-based artist Keith Thomson creates quick-witted, mixed-media artwork that blends realism and surrealism. His background as a political cartoonist in the 90’s is reflected in the sharp storytelling his artwork achieves. He combines stylized realism and everyday subject matter with surreal details and ironic twists. He begins his work as digital sketches using an animation software, then he transfers the sketch onto the canvas and begins applying oil paint. In addition to painting, he is a writer, of mostly spy novels and nonfiction articles. His writing prowess shines through in his witty descriptions of his pieces.
