    Tom Fluharty's Paintings [Updated: June 1, 2010]

    Hey everyone,
    My friend Bobby Chiu has been talking about ConceptArt.org for quite a while.
    I'm new to this forum, this seems to be a great art community with many talents. I am looking forward to meet many of you.

    Just wanted to share some of my work. This batch are all oil paintings done traditionally.

    I have been illustrating for a long time and experimented with many mediums, in the end i find oils to be the ultimate medium and have been using it for the last 8 years.

    For those interested, I will also be teaching an Oil Painting class online based on my Dutch Flemish approach. For more information please visit Schoolism.com

    For more of my work please visit my

    Thank you to Bobby for hosting my images on his server.

    Great works! I cannot make an oil painting coz I'm very bad at this one
    I like the 2nd picture with an old structured arch the most. Btw, the picture of Hillary looks funny too

    Awesome work. Your interview yesterday got me interested in oils for the first time. Perhaps one day I will have the space to try them. I too am new here and am looking forward to getting involved and learning something.

    It's amazing how few charicaturists are able to achieve work that is so warped yet so Real. I love that second one of Hilary. Very hot!!

    Amazing works! You capture forms really well, able to deform them at will to create stuff like that!
    I do enjoy traditional paintings but am just curious how possible is it as work in modern day? I definitely like to think i can survive not just on digital(for the speed)!
