Thomas Trausch
"American Impressionist"
"THE FINE ART OF PERSONAL EXPRESSION"

I've been very fortunate to do what I love doing for the last 25 years plus. Having had the opportunity to study the great works of art in museums and in print and to travel and paint ("en plein air") both in the United States and Europe, my work is driven by both the use of light and color.

While being part of the Impressionist tradition, it is still a thrill to be encompassed and inspired by nature. Smaller studies done on location often are the springboard for larger, more complex paintings done in the studio.
