Classic Graphic(s)

I love images that you darn well know is art and not a photo, but has that elusive quality of being alive with spirit. Gerald Cassidy was a fine painter, but also a great graphic artist, as this suite of drawings demonstrates. Incorporating artful type, and bold outlines, and silhouetted shapes, and beautiful negative space—and well, just everything is so satisfying to look at.

About Me

My photo
Thomas Haller Buchanan
My name is Thom Buchanan. I'm an artist and photographer. People are my favorite subjects to portray in art and photos. My wife (and studio partner) has called that my 'people skills', as I've been passionately creating portrait studies for many years. I refer to myself as a pictorialist, a combination of image-making and journalist. Images are my life.
