Bo Thomas
is an exponent of what is known as
'Outsider Art' (Art Brut).
He is inspired by ornamental designs
but tries to convey a subtle message
often of mystery.
Through his aquarelle paintings,
Bo Thomas is telling stories,
sometimes stories of sadness and despair,
but mostly of happiness and kindness.
Bo Thomas lives in the Northern Rivers of NSW.
