Artist
Tom duBois (pronounced doo-BWAH) has the gift of seeing through
a child's eyes thus transforming the realistic into the fantastic.
The results are highly imaginative works of art unique to
his creative genius.
A true Renaissance man, duBois has merged his love of art,
poetry, and music into an interesting and diverse career.
He is an illustrator as well as a fine artist, poet, singer,
and storyteller. Tom often appears
at gallery signings with his acoustic guitar and sings to the amazement
and delight of his collectors. He is fond of a quote by
Picasso, "Every child is an artist. The problem is remaining
a child once you grow up."
Tom's Noah's Ark Series was extremely popular and his collectors
eagerly anticipate each new release from his Biblical art
series. The Disney Discovery Series, now completely sold
out from the publisher and available only on the secondary
market, was completed in 1996. Featured in each of the five
paintings is a scene from a Disney movie.
Tom duBois' passion for life and enthusiasm for the world
of imagination breathe life into every piece he creates.
"Like every kid, Disney was a big part of my life growing
up. I loved all the characters, and the sheer fantasy and
creativity of the animated films was an inspiration. The
complex compositions, with their hidden images, are as challenging
to render as they are to discover. The whole idea of producing
these works just thrills me."
