Art in the Midst of The Rage
|
William Thomas Thompson |
| After earning millions at importing and
selling, William Thompson suffered the onslaught of a disease that has
rendered his legs unable to support him and his arms and hands half what
they were. While attending a religious service one day, Thompson was
struck just as hard with a vision of the end times, a fiery conflagration
terrifying in its reality yet horrific in its brevity. The vision somehow
forced Thompson to create paintings, something he had never done nor had a
liking for in others. William Thompson creates from the vision he has been blessed with. If the word of right is to be spread, Thompson thinks it will be through him and others, caught in the blink of an eye in the vision. His art creates its way through what he calls "The Rage", not of anger but of rapture and fury and belief. The rage he stands in the midst of pushes the brush, the paint and Thompson with it. Art in the Midst of The Rage. We will try to present the art of William Thompson in the reverence and honor in which it was created. From simple 2x3 paintings to the elaborate 300 foot long Revelation, Thompson's art calls for an understanding only brought about from viewing and contemplation. We hope you enjoy and appreciate the work of William Thompson. To read the Journals of William Thomas Thompson, click here. |
