Who is Troy Thomas?

About Troy Thomas

Troy is an artist that was born and raised in Ashtabula, Ohio. After many years of living in different parts of Florida, such as St. Petersburg, Tampa, Fort Myers, and Cape Coral, and a short time in Charlotte, North Carolina, he currently resides in Geneva, Ohio.

Troy works in many different mediums and styles; however, he mostly creates geometric abstraction or neo-minimalist artworks with gel pens on mixed media paper or acrylic paint on canvas. He also uses his original artworks as a base for digital art creations. When he is not creating art with ink or paint, he can often be found walking around town doing photography.

Troy believes that art doesn’t have to have a hidden meaning and creates most of his art for art’s sake. However, if a collector feels a special connection to a piece of his art, Troy doesn’t mind the collector assigning a meaning to it. Most of the time, he prefers for people to just enjoy the art as the eye sees it.
