About Me

My photo
Tom Kidd
I like making pictures and I like writing, hence this blog of art and words. Here I will do serious things, goofy things, try my hand at teaching, do a bit of proselytizing on my views of art but mostly I’ll just be showing what I’ve been doing. One theme you can expect me to return to over and over is that observation, extrapolation and imagination are the greatest tools we humans have.
