Alison Thomas

I am a practising artist working from my studio in Irvine, Scotland. I produce mainly oil paintings and occasionally textile work and I enjoy running art classes for children and adults on a regular basis. My work shows an interest in colour and pattern and I have been inspired by the circus in a lot of my recent paintings. My work commonly features animals and circus characters, in partiucular the harlequin couple who I like to take out of context and place in fairy tale like settings.
