About The Artist Charles Thomas, b1960, began his art career as a graphic designer 26 years ago. He spent twelve years as an illustrator before going full time into fine art. His work has been exhibited by the Society of Illustrators, The Scottsdale Artists School and the Oil Painters of America in their National Juried Exhibition. Thomas lives in southern Arizona with his wife, Shirley. "I live in the rural West, a place of incredible beauty. I paint nearly every day, both outdoors and in the studio. My subjects range from the mundane to the spectacular. The beauty of God's creation is everywhere, and to be able to paint it and share it with others is an absolute blessing that I am deeply grateful for.” About The Art & Website This site features work from the past decade.
