Items of Interest about Tom Woodson

Tom spends most of his time painting, but also dedicates many hours to helping his brother, Dan, renovate an older home in Muncie, Indiana. They have replaced woodwork, lighting and cabinets and turned ordinary doorways into arched passages. There is still much work to do, but the brothers are up to the task. The historic home serves as a studio for both Tom and Dan.

Tom is part of an artistic family. He was greatly influenced by his brother, Dan, but has now found his own unique style. Dan was one of the driving forces in the Painting Indiana project. Dan's son and grandson also paint. One of Tom's daughters is considering taking up painting as well.

When Tom began to paint, he would have Dan critique his work. Dan and Tom would often go to paint-outs together. One time they drove to Tucson, Az. for a national competition. Tom was very excited and could not wait to arrive and start painting. Registration for the event was in an art gallery. Tom was overwhelmed when he saw all of the beautiful southwestern artwork and developed artist's block. He was able to overcome this when he and Dan jointly painted a desert building.
