Dave Thomas is a painter residing in Edmonton, Alberta Canada, that splits his time between his personal art and commercial mural projects. His commercial work can be found at: http://www.flyingcolorsmurals.com – a company he owns and operates with his brother, Allan Thomas.
‘’ The process of making a painting, constantly shifting between realism and abstraction; trying to find harmony between the two, mirrors my process of being mindful in a zeitgeist in which there is a lot more than meets the eye”.
