The painting style that Tom Touchstone uses is solely his own. He has chosen to paint on "window screens" instead of canvas or wood. He simply "likes the texture" of this unusual painting surface. The subject matter is also uncommon....from "Zadona", an alien with child, to "Hanzel & Gretta", a cow and a mule in the traditional "American Gothic" pose. The surface is built up with caulking before he paints them, and they withstand the elements rather nicely. Tom Touchstone is also featured on our pottery page with his primitive pottery.
