His paintings represent ideals from the modern world and culture, portrayed within classic imagery of simple beauty, often depicted by butterflies, flowers and beautiful women.
His pictures represent a contradiction of idealism and unattainable visions of beauty found in fashion, music and popular culture. Polished off with a haunting, icy resonance of captured emotion and depth and with the edgyness of streetart and spray work.
The girls he paints have a raw realism and seem to tell epic tales through their haunting gaze. Using a mixture of classic painting techniques and spray can art, he creates print styles with stencils, depth with spray paint and texture with a paintbrush.
His work echoes pop, and contemporary feels, and ooze presence. The works blend styles and medium, and hes allways trying new techniques and ideas.
But most importantly C.R.Thomas's work performs what any good painting should; it looks good on a wall.
