Alain Thomas

Alain Thomas (Born 1942) is active/lives in France.  Alain Thomas is known for Folk art style figure in landscape, still life and townscape painting.

He has illustrated over the course of his career twenty books including several bestiaries, bibliophile books such as Marco Polo (1987) and children's stories such as Snow Spring (1987). Some creations on paper like that of Toucan (2002) and Aras Macao (2004) also decorate the supports of numerous collections on porcelain of Limoges, bristles of Lyon, enamels of Longwy, tapestries of Aubusson, illuminations, etc.
