Ian Thomson

Now in semi-retirement my style is more illustrative than conventional full-colour painting though I have undertaken commissions that have been more traditionally painted. 

I have created work for restaurants, hotels and sold postcards and giftcards in local independent shops including a commission to decorate the dining room of Bath Youth Hostel with 12 fine-line drawings of favourite buildings in Bath itself. I also undertake private commissions and these have included wedding locations and individuals homes.

I will paint or sketch any subject that captures my interest but I am often drawn to subjects that hold a historic,cultural or community interest.
