Description
There is so much to love in New York’s Central Park that om would often spend hours alone there simply wandering about, sketching, lost in his thoughts and communing with God in nature. Feeding the spirit and filling the eye, the views of that grand city, fronted by the ora of the park, were absolutely perfect subjects for Thom’s work in oil and he would never end such an excursion without new ideas and passions to capture on canvas. “The colors and natural compositions of the place are sublime” he would say, and then recognize it as being crafted by both the talented landscapists who laid out Central Park’s design and by the hand of the Creator who clearly blessed this plot of land with a natural magnificence. Bow Bridge is one such landmark in the park that excited Thom’s artistic sensibility.
