Thomas explores a new style, experimenting with an illustrative focus. He has Chosen the Title “It’s So Hot” because he likes summer, and the warm orange back-ground depicts the enjoyment this brings him.

The work represents the flow of feelings:

“I can barely breathe, especially with you standing next to me. Messages you keep sending and I note you keep leaving me. Let’s go somewhere safe you lead and I will follow, it's so hot. Tell me what you feel inside start the way you know it's right a different kind of paradise. I feel the summer sun burnin' when you look at me that way. Finally, I'm done searching when you look at me that way.”

[About the artist] Thomas Doyle

Thomas’s explorative art practice is concerned with achieving true self actualisation where the artistic process or journey is just as important as the finished product. Influenced by the Impressionists and Surrealists, Thomas enjoys accessing his subconsciousness and being led by this flow to create works with a unique design, mood and story, and a safe and gentle depth.

Thomas explores the tactile organic nature of raw fibres alongside patterned mandalas and grids representing the entwined forces of humanity and the environment. Objects such as leaves are pressed and tell their own story of abstraction. With insightful discipline Thomas adds to his personal growth story by making work everyday unlocking new skills and thoughts.

Thomas has studied at the Brisbane Institute of Art, Access Arts, Footprints Inc. and Art From The Margins. He regularly exhibits with Art From The Margins and has a current showing at St Andrews Hospital Brisbane.
