Tom was born in Texas and lives in the farming community of Harriett just east of San Angelo. He enjoys painting the beauty and heritage of West Texas. Tom began painting in 2001 after a distinguished career in outdoor advertising. He has studied and worked with many renowned artists in this quest to find his own style. His hard work and dedication to painting has been recognized and rewarded in art shows regional and national.
Tom was a dedicated studio artist for many years until recently venturing into Plein Air painting. In doing so he discovered that being on location makes the whole world a painting. Tom was a competitive artist in the 2016 En Plein Air Texas and continues to be a strong advocate for the event. His art demonstrates the benefit of outdoor painting as it relates to the studio.
