Billie-Jo Thomson

My life journey has always been about making art. From bronze sculptures and ceramic work to mural painting and visual commissions in the film industry, I have filled my life with art.
This process has validated itself for me by earning a number of awards and commissions throughout my career.
I am a classically trained visual artist, having completed numerous degrees in various institutions in the 1980’s.
I now immerse myself in the medium of oil painting as a way to express my vision in a variety of subject matter.
