Thompson’s rich, layered, and textural paintings offer portals into landscapes that feel at once intimate and expansive. Through dense surfaces and nuanced shifts of color and form, the works evoke environments that seem familiar yet elusive, drawing viewers into a contemplative relationship with the painted space. The paintings operate less as images to be observed and more as experiences to be entered.

These semi-abstract forest and mountain landscapes are not depictions of specific places, but invitations into a sensed terrain that exists between representation and abstraction. Thompson balances suggestion and ambiguity, allowing natural forms to emerge and recede, guiding the viewer through spaces that feel remembered, imagined, or emotionally resonant rather than geographically fixed.

Each painting presents a moment of pause between here and there—a still point in the forest, a threshold of light, a winding path, or a dissolving waterway. Within these moments, there is a quiet anticipation, a glimmer of what might lie just beyond view, encouraging reflection on perception, movement, and the passage between interior and exterior worlds.
