Artist Bio

Thomas Legnon is an American born multi media artist whose woven a Mythos for over thirty years. 
Based in both Berlin & the Hudson Valley, Thomas spent 2024/2025 documenting a 15 year body of art. Hundreds of new works born of immersion in natural, artificial & elemental environments..
each piece a portal inviting the viewer to immerse & interpret layers of macro/micro narrative. 

Earlier Acrylics and Oil paintings incorporated more representation and figurative elements while blurring lines between 'fine art' and 'illustration'. Abstraction has always been integral to the work, the link intended to stylistically display as a continuum throughout mediums and periods.

A Series of Mythosaur Animatic Sculptures were fabricated in 2007/2008 with 
a film short test started in 2012; & revisited in 2024 for a few additional scenes. 

Traditional skills allowed him to hone his trade while working with notable Artists & Institutions including Al Held, Jeff Koons, Mike & Doug Starn, Lucasfilm, Disney, SONY, Polich-Tallax, Seattle Opera and more.
Some aspects of these experiences informed his visual philosophies & creative output for the next phase of painting..the Encaustics. 

The Encaustic Series was set out to create purely non representative art with infinite curatorial flexibility...
All groupings can be arranged in a myriad of ways and still function as a whole. Endless possibility. 
An experience from One to Hundreds. 

Fusion, temperature, time, melting, coaxing, brushwork, tape, razor scoring and burnishing all factor into every painting. The liquid wax viable for only seconds mirrors life's fleeting moments, interweaving  organic, architectural and elemental.. each pouring over or through one another. Daydream conduits.
