W Max Thomason

W. Max Thomason (American, b.1971) a contemporary painter whose work encompasses Realism, Abstraction, as well as elements of Pop-Art. His works frequently depict single/sole figures in various states of focus. Most recently, Thomason has begun to employ urban settings, at night, during or after a rainstorm in a realist approach. His early influences as a painter can be attributed to the work of the Fauvists & American Realists of the 60's & 70's. Thomason studied studio art from 1990-97 at Metropolitan State University/University of Colorado Denver under the guidance of the likes of Amy Métier & Robert Mangold. His work has been exhibited nationally and internationally in galleries and museums and has been selected for album covers for Carolyn's Mother and Mike River. Thomason currently resides in Denver, Colorado where he is the curator & owner of Bitfactory Gallery & Studios.
