About the Item
Artist Comments
Framed by an airplane window, a solitary pilot is engrossed in his phone, seemingly oblivious to the altitude. One can fall into a rabbit hole, even at 25,000 feet in the air. The stark contrast between the aircraft and the sky emphasizes his isolation; luckily, he has a small device to accompany him. Artist Keith Thomson uses oil and ink to create the piece.
About the Artist
Alabama-based artist Keith Thomson creates quick-witted, mixed-media artwork that blends realism and surrealism. His background as a political cartoonist in the 90’s is reflected in the sharp storytelling his artwork achieves. He combines stylized realism and everyday subject matter with surreal details and ironic twists. He begins his work as digital sketches using an animation software, then he transfers the sketch onto the canvas and begins applying oil paint. In addition to painting, he is a writer, of mostly spy novels and nonfiction articles. His writing prowess shines through in his witty descriptions of his pieces.
