About Me:

I've been a "professional" since 1991 but took a sabbatical from 99 until recently. I'm hoping to get back into the business of art and the life of being creative again.

About My Art:

I consider myself to be an impressionist. My paintings are figurative pointillism done primarily in acrylic on canvas.

While I’m sure that the idea of using a non-traditional tool never crosses a persons mind until the very moment that the light goes on, I certainly never thought of a toothbrush as being an artistic tool! I also never imagined i would be able to express myself through the imagery that i have.

I am still very happy being called "the toothbrush guy" and with the exploration into the limits of this chosen tool, but I will never be limited to just it. I don’t think I’ve exhausted the toothbrush as a tool yet. There are still so many avenues that await me with this. While I don’t see myself putting it down at any time in the near future, I don't ever want to limit myself to being or by becoming one-dimensional.

Favorite Artists:

So pleased that you are feeling better, It takes a while I know.

I started back to work full time again this week, finding it a struggle as am so tired but hoping that will pass.
On a brighter note am well enough to return so ....still having physio for the foot but it is making progress I think..

Am painting as much as possible but weekends mostly at the moment the workday is just too much during the week.
I added 3 abstracts last week, so hoping getting back on track.
I resent every day wasted NOT painting but have to go with the flow at the moment.

Great to hear from you x

At 5:08am on February 3, 2009, Rosamaria Letts said…: Dear Thomas, you ask a good question. More than a critic I am an art historian, I have an art company in London "Artstur"which deals mainly with Italian Art through the presentation of Artists and artistic movement, books on art and history of art done by eminent historians and the books authors who live in London or pass through London sometimes at out request. We also organize many art touts to Italy at times to visit particular exhibitions. Mainly of classical art. Many London critics and art jounalists lecture for us and I have written books on the Renaissance and many exhibition catalogues also some articles for Italian Newspapers. But I am afraid not on request.

I am interested in your pointillist works since pointillism is one of my favourite schools. In London we have great examples in the National Gallery as you well know. But how can you do that with photographs? Or have I not understood your media?

regards, Rosa Maria
