Dreaming at the age of 7, he painted from the countryside to the city, 900,000 people envied it: color and light are too comfortable

 

Many people have the same experience,

My interest in painting began in childhood,

No matter what kind of personality hobby it is,

Sometimes you only need a graphic,

You can reveal your truest thoughts to others like magic,

And painting is also the best way to output language.

Watercolor painter from the United States

Thomas Wells Schaller

From a rural farmhouse in Ohio, USA.

 

 

Everyone has their own favorite career yearning,

When I was a child, I dreamed of being my favorite,

Pure is also beautiful.

Thomas saw a book on his grandmother's shelf,

It's about American artists whose works are on display at the Grand Museum of Art in New York,

For the first time, he felt the charm of painting.


 

The exhibition hall is not only the works of painters,

You can also see the painter's life,

At the moment, a 7-year-old boy is fascinated by all kinds of artist legendary experiences.

He announced loudly that to become an artist and live in a big city,

But my parents don't like urban elements,

It didn't dispel such a little boy's illusion.

 

 

What everyone didn't expect actually happened,

Not much has changed in rural Ohio,

My parents still live in that leisure farmhouse,

The only thing fulfilled was Thomas's 7-year-old dream.

Painting, a non-verbal expression,

It is also the best way to find order in the chaos of his life.

 

 

There is no such thing as talent in Thomas's painting,

From rural areas to big cities,

His ubiquitous observation records,

Train yourself wildly with a pencil and a sketchbook,

Many painting materials originate from these seemingly messy brushstrokes,

Of course most of them are meaningless,

Just to keep active thinking all the time,

Everything that expresses what is seen, heard, thought, remembered and thought is reinterpreted as a visual language and ultimately created as a painting.

 

 

Painting really needs to be quiet down,

In Thomas's memory,

There were no travel and teaching arrangements during the lockdown in COVID-19 pandemic.

But there are more worlds of thinking and writing and painting,

"A hundred painters have a hundred kinds of painting thoughts" has become more concrete,

Everyone's way of "seeing" the world is unique.

His works also take on a more personal and authentic brilliance.

 

 

Created by Small and Large Landscape Elements Records.

Carefully observe Thomas's landscape paintings,

There are clear outline perspective lines,

There is also a strong color contrast between warm and cold spaces,

Combining the clarity of transparent watercolor with realistic techniques,

Keep the characteristics of natural smudge and rich layers of watercolor

Through delicate brushstrokes and color superposition,

Achieve accurate depiction of complex scenes,

It further strengthens the smart artistic atmosphere of the works.

 


Watercolor For Thomas,

Always have rich expressive power,

Whispering, forceful and even poetic.

Strong contrast between light and dark,

Create a visual effect full of tension,

Large pieces of light and shadow cutting make the scenery instantly full of three-dimensional and atmospheric sense, which seems to be very significantly different from most soft watercolors.

 


Perhaps portrayal is more of a basic skill for painters,

Thomas is better at expressing emotions.

Quiet church corner, hazy water town rain scene...

Everything seems to be no longer a simple landscape rendition,

There is a sense of blending between humanities and art.

 

 

Thomas started out as an unknown painter,

This is a common problem in the world without online painting,

Social media culture that develops at the speed of light,

Let Thomas's work get quick exposure,

Of course, it has also made many painters.


 

After the exposure, Thomas's works quickly heated up on the Internet,

Facebook and ins quickly gained 900,000 followers,

Let these people who like painting envy every meeting moment in his paintings.

Since 2000,

He has won more than 514 exhibition awards.

With its unique painting style,

Collectors, art associations, galleries, etc. come in droves,

There are shadows of Thomas's paintings all over the world.

 

 

Thomas pays more attention to outline geometry in watercolor,

This stems from his love for architectural geometry,

Blend the edges and corners into the water and smudge the colors,

Give people a refreshing visual experience.
