Artist Statement
His work is inspired by music, identity, and mystery. Primarily an abstract painter, the artist uses various mediums to conceptualize his vision. Thomas credits working as an assistant to international artist Sam Gilliam and sculptor/architect John L. Dreyfuss for his passion to become a working artist. His work is driven by the notion that our ancestors have helped us live our future now. Pulling from ancient unexplainable phenomena for inspiration, such as the Egyptian pyramids and astrology has inspired me to create something abstract and mysterious. Thomas embraces the energy of music, mystery, and his ancestors to guide him through a colorful and complex journey of metaphysics.This has been instrumental for the understanding of the invisible nature of life to transcend into a physical thing that can be created -ART.Abstraction and the pioneering aspects of Afro-Futurism
