Tammy Groves Thornton is an artist from Memphis, TN, with a burning love for acrylic, watercolor, and graphic art. She loved the use of bright, vibrant colors as they electrified visually and drew you into the stories being told on canvas. Earlier in life, she was drawn to watercolor because of its fluidity and luminosity. Later, a love for bold, rich colors was awakened through the use of acrylic
s on canvas and it has been a burning love ever since, which is likely why her favorite artist is Romero Britto. His cubist and neo-pop style is bright, colorful and happy. Tammy defines herself as a combination of expressionism and post impressionism, permeated with hints of abstract, to create her own style of art of colorful, joyful expressions.
