Peggy Thomas feels that an artist connects with a spiritual realm when he/she creates. She chooses the one of good and hopes to reveal the beauty she sees in each of us and around us.
It is important to complete the circle. That is, an artist creates and when someone else becomes involved and receives fulfillment from that creation, the circle is complete.
Her paintings begin with a detailed pencil drawing on the canvas. The process of applying at least twenty layers of paint begins. Only brushes are used. She uses the white of the canvas, but rarely white paint. Mediums are never used.
