Thomas McCoy Wall Art

Thomas McCoy was born in Montana in 1971, but can trace his ancestry back to Scotland. He has always somehow known, even as a toddler, that art would play a major role in his life. His love of travel, exploration, and the cosmos, together with a passion for art, has been the basis behind his works. McCoy exemplifies his use of abstract form and gestures as a means of communicating emotion and thought. McCoy strongly believes that meaning is conveyed through gesture and structure. Bold marks and vivid colors personify his style. After graduating from the University of Boulder, Thomas McCoy spent several years out west before pursuing his dreams of traveling throughout Europe. A self-taught artist, Thomas would like to travel back to Europe and perhaps Africa and Australia to further his experiences in both his travels and his art. Moving to Atlanta nearly a year ago, McCoy has put his full effort into creating some of his best works. "My paintings have come alive", he says. "I view the world with my eyes wide open". He lives each day with the philosophy that we are all but a minuet part of the largest picture of all - The Universe.
