Alma Thomas was an African American artist who was known for her amazing use of color in her paintings.
She lived and worked in Washington D.C. and was part of a group of artists called the Washington Color Field School. She started painting seriously after she retired from her job as a school art teacher.
Thomas was inspired by the colors and patterns she saw in nature, like the leaves and flowers blowing in the wind. She would imagine seeing the world from a plane and turned these observations into her paintings.
Her style was unique, using big patches of color in circles or stripes to create a beautiful mosaic-like look. Her colors were bright and bold, making her paintings very lively.
Alma Thomas believed that creativity knows no bounds of race or gender.
She worked hard to perfect her painting skills and became known for her amazing use of color.
She continued to paint into her later years, creating some of her best works in her 80s.
She inspired others with her beautiful paintings and her love of color.
