Thomas
Blackshear is a world class illustrator. He is best known
for his limited edition prints and collector's plates. In
April 1995, Blackshear introduced his first six limited edition
sculptures as part of the "Ebony Visions" Collection.
Since then over 50 new designs have been added to the collection.
Blackshear's
elegant style is a blend of both Art Nouveau and African culture.
Blackshear calls his style Afro-Noveau. In his own words,
"My work is meant to transcend all racial and cultural
lines, because in essence, the physical and spiritual expression
in my sculptures are all part of the human experience."
Since
the introduction of Ebony Visions, Blackshear has received
numerous awards including the prestigious 1996 National Association
of Limited Edition Dealers "Rising Star Award."
In
1998, Thomas Blackshear introduced a new line of powerful
works of art titled "The MasterPeace Collection".
These pieces demonstrate Blackshear's perfect marriage of
artistic excellence and scriptural principles.
Now,
Thomas Blackshear introduces a series of limited edition fine
art prints celebrating human and natural beauty, which further
exemplifies his meticulous style and limitless creativity.
