Photomontage Thom entered the Vancouver School of Art in 1969 to pursue his continuing photography work. Here he was introduced to sculpture and found the world of 3D. BCIT led to a career in the building environment and working with major architectural firms in Vancouver. Retiring from architecture in 2004, he returned to his first love, the 2D world of Photographic Arts. Thom continues to take courses in the digital arts at  Emily Carr University of Art & Design. Thom uses digital images to create photomontages that capture images to inform and entertain. The composition, colour and content of the individual photos become the components of the montage. The artist obtains original images on location or in the studio. The commitment is in Photoshopping - spending time masking, modifying, merging and mixing filtered images together, sometimes one pixel at a time. The risk is in the final work, meeting the artist's demands and intentions. Does it inform, inspire and draw the viewer in? Works average 24" x 34" (600 X 900) subject to the project. When showing in galleries, black aluminum frames with a profile of 10 x 50 are used. Different, smaller or larger size projects are usually noted on the web site or will be identified when requesting information or ordering art work. All pieces are on acid-free archival photo art paper or photo canvas. Thom's studio is located in North Vancouver, BC, Canada. Groups or individuals are invited for an opportunity to have their portraits taken for the artist's new art series. Would you like to be immortalized?
