Tom Henry

"I work from my studio in Symington, South Lanarkshire. I have always painted throughout my teaching career for my own professional development and satisfaction.

I work primarily in oils although I enjoy exploring a broad spectrum of media. My work is mainly figurative and tends to fall into two categories; the invented which looks at life's little struggles from my own viewpoint usually with a little self-indulgent humour and from life which until now has meant mostly portraiture. I love painting and the effects that you can achieve with just a few colours and I feel that my art will always be more about the journey than the destination." Tom Henry
