Biography from AskART:
Arkansas Impressionist artist, Barry Thomas, is noted for canvases filled with light, energy and vivid color.

This six foot plus Little Rock, Arkansas painter looks like he would be more at home on the football field than holding a paintbrush, which he actually did at one time, playing for the famed Lou Holtz at the University of Arkansas with the Razorbacks. With the encouragement of Coach Holtz, Barry decided to follow his dream of becoming an artist and went on to study at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, from which he received his fine arts degree.

A year following his graduation, he was chosen for the Society of Illustration Hallmark Award. Thomas worked in illustration and commercial art until he was able to focus on his fine art career. In his artwork, he prefers bright colors, the exclusion of browns and black, and uses broad, heavily-impastoed brushstrokes. Often his subjects are mothers and children, or still-lifes.

His wife, Piper, and their three children are the main focus of his life and the subject of many of his canvases. He says, "I surround myself with the things I lovemusic, people, books; they all have a positive influence on me. I like to create paintings that have positive messages."

He is known to paint in the Ozarks and along the Buffalo River. The artist maintains a studio in the Ferndale area of Little Rock.
