Thom Ross

Thom Ross (Born 1953) was active/lived in Wyoming, New Mexico, California.  Thom Ross is known for Mod historical western genre and figure painting.

A painter, usually in acrylic, of iconic western figures including cowboys, Indians and white-male shoot-em-up villains, Thom Ross is dedicated to "historical ghosts", that is depicting events of frontier American history such as The Alamo and Custer's Last Stand in a way that cuts through mythology and shows underlying realism.   He is bored by the traditional images of heroes and unlikely feats or accomplishments, and is dedicated to keeping American history alive---as it really happened.  When he is not at his easel, he is reading books from which he gets ideas for more paintings.

Many of his pieces are humorous such as his Indians Playing Pingpong, which shows men in full feather headdresses having fun at a light-hearted game instead of the stock image of them aiming bows and arrows at white frontier settlers.   Another painting, It Went Up With a BANG, shows Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid surrounded by flying dollar   ...  [Displaying 1000 of 5777 characters.]  Artist bio
