Elephant 19 Green Painting

Raph Thomas is a London based artist who specialises in figurative painting. His ongoing animal series makes use of bright colours to augment the viewer's impression of the subject. He usually works with a combination of acrylic, emulsion, crackle paste and other media to form textured, distressed and sometimes dedicated appearing backgrounds that he then depicts figures traversing or immersed in. The works displayed here are digitally altered from the original paintings to have different colours and are only available as prints. He has a large collection of his unaltered work at his site: www.raphthomasart.co.uk
