About the Item
Artist Comments
An impressionist rendering of a figure skater in mid-twirl. Artist Keith Thomson creates this piece with a hypothesis about impressionist work in mind, "Paradoxically, impressionism can capture motion better than realism or even film."
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.
