Hello from Georgia
Hey everybody,
This is Tom. I sign my paintings Thomas Nash (sometimes Thomas V. Nash) but friends call me Tom. I technically have been a member a long time but have not been on the site so it's like I'm new here.
I've been a professional portrait painter for almost thirty five years now.
I will come back and add more bio stuff later. First I am going to post a link about an article on portraiture from the May 29th Washington Post art critic Blake Gopnik. I'm going to the Cafe Guerbois and do that now.
Gopnik, the author is one of these elitists with a very narrow view of what can be called "art". Since he believes that painting as an art form is "dead" and that no "important" artist would bother with it, we kinda know that we aren't going to be reading something objective or informative about traditional painting.
I will eventually post some photos of the only official portrait I have in the Capitol along with a series of photos showing how I did it. I'll do that here and on my own site when I have time.
