Kevin Thomas

In 1976, I acquired formal training through a scholarship to Parsons School of Design in New York City. During my first year as a student I was hired as a graphic designer and illustrator by the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Since then, I have created artwork for numerous award winning projects from advertising agencies and design firms to museums through out the north & southeast as well as the midwest.

I am currently in pursuit of my greatest endeavor as an artist, painting fine art projects that interest me.
