Marcus and Leslee spend a wonderful Friday morning discussing the process and the particulars of his paintings, particularly the ones that incorporate striking images, juxtaposing nature with myth, everyday objects and ideas.
These paintings will be shown and discussed in depth in the book. Stay tuned for further thoughts on art, life and the world.
Feel free to comment below on your experiences with Marcus' art, or even art and life in general. We'd love to hear from you.
Written by author Leslee Johnson, this blog chronicles the process of creating the 25-year retrospective of the artist Marcus Thomas. At 26, Marcus Thomas survived a skiing accident which left him paralyzed from the neck down. Six months into his recovery, learning to live as a quadriplegic, he took up a paintbrush and started to create art. Now, 25 years after the accident, he continues to learn how to live - as an artist.
