About "TOM THUMB"

by db Waterman

About the artwork

Tom Thumb is a character from English folklore. Published in 1621, The History of Tom Thumb was the first fairy tale printed in English. Tom is no taller than his father's thumb.

Children inspire me. Their ability to transcend any rotten situation is amazing. Playing tag in the ruins of a bombed-out Syrian city. Playing soccer in the most miserable neighborhoods. They are always looking for the light. They save the future that our generations really messed up and don't even blame us for it. If only we could keep the child in ourselves a little more, we wouldn't be in such a mess. Art can help us find our childlike innocence again

The original painting is a Mixed Media / Collage artwork on canvas. Made with layers of paper revealing text and letters. Over that, acrylic paint was applied in a transparent layer. Finally, I painted the boy on top.

All my artwork is inspired by weathered walls with posters, peeling paint and all kinds of things in disrepair. I try to use these elements to create something new, something beautiful.
