The landscape paintings of Thomas Spencer vibrate with bold colours.
Thomas Spencer, like many artists, came to art relatively late in life. Concerned with the plight of art and artists in Wales he set about creating an art group, in the Bargoed area of South Wales, to attempt to redress some of the problems encountered.
Spencer is a self-taught and extremely motivated artist. His work is original, popular and receiving increased attention at present.
The quality of the work shown above was recently recognised by the art establishment with acceptance to this years
Royal Academy
Summer Exhibition in London.
About the Artist
Spencer's career as an artist really began in 1995, although he has painted with passion since the age of twelve. He spent most of his life in a service industry, until forced to retire through health grounds.
His working methods are varied and span many mediums. Perhaps the overwhelming impression gained from his works is that of movement.
His time now is devoted to studying colour mixing and the lives and working practices of artists in the canon of Fine Art history and contemporary painters of interest.
Thomas Spencer is a founder member of the
ARTISTS COMBINED
group, based in Bargoed, Caerphilly, along with four colleagues. The group is extremely active, with exhibitions mainly within the locality but have also shown in Worthing in Sussex.
