The surrealist paintings of Atlanta based Thomas Turner depict scenes from the natural world if the laws of physics didn’t apply. Things such as gravity, color, time and space are solely held in Turners control and he alone decides what is or isn’t. Although widely considered a studio painter, Turner has spent the last few years branching out and painting murals with great success, landing big commission jobs around Atlanta including some with the major league sports teams in town. For the past two years he has also worked as the assistant for VantagePoint host James Bullough on all of his major mural projects including one in Sweden for Artscape Festival which is where we sat down with Thomas for an interview about life as an emerging artists, making the transition from studio painting to murals, the pros and cons of working as an assistant and where he sees things going for him in the future.
