Alma W. Thomas Boxed Notecard Assortment

$18.95

Grounded in nature, music, and her own impressions of earthly phenomena, Alma Thomas’s late work—exemplified by the four garden-inspired paintings featured in this notecard set—evokes the transformative dynamics of light, sound, and movement. Her dedication to abstraction reflected her belief that modern art, at its best, could transcend political and historical concerns. Thomas’s vibrant, lyrical compositions and distinctive mark-making place her among the most innovative American painters of the 20th century. Contains five each of the following images: Red Roses Sonata, 1972 Tiptoe Through the Tulips, 1969 Pansies in Washington, 1969 Air View of a Spring Nursery, 1966

Alma Thomas

Exuberant colorist Alma Thomas (American, 1891–1978) created glowing, mosaic-like artworks during her artistic prime. For nearly 40 years she taught art in Washington, DC, public schools, all the while exploring Expressionist, Abstract, and nonobjective phases of art. Her mature style features bold, splashy paintings inspired by nature and the happenings of her day. She was particularly excited by space exploration of the 1960s, which led to the noteworthy Space series in which her lifelong study of color theory sparkles. She was an artist of indomitable spirit. As a Black woman, she overcame hurdles related to race, gender, and age; she produced her most important works after age 70. Thomas is known as a major painter of the Washington Color Field School.

Thomas abstracts

These abstracts are beautiful. I just sent the nursery abstract to friends who are celebrating the birth of their first grandchild.

How nice! We hope they appreciate Alma's work as much as you do. :)
