Struggling
I love Thomas’ paintings because, as she describes them, they are expressionistic and have great movement and fluidity. There is a warm glow about the pieces with sweeping stokes of rich yellow, blue, green and red paint.
The shadow-like figures pull the viewer in while retaining their anonymity as
they walk, dance and are posed on the canvas. Her paintings remind me of looking
out a rain covered window, or across the horizon at sunset, watching the world
outside move through blurred vision.

Thomas’ pieces are roughly a medium to medium large size,
and I would think that multiples along a wall would add color and character to any
room or hallway. I’m very intrigued by her influences and homage’s to Francisco Goya, Oaxaca
and the Mayan
people.
ps...here is a website I found which discusses more of Deloris's influences and work.
