Artist Thom Simon first began painting at age 15, with just crayons purchased for him by his brother in-law. Thomas' first canvas sale was at age 16 and his work has been and continues to be inspired by what he experiences in his everyday life in Malawi. Some of his work reflects life scenes such as women carrying water, villagers working in the fields, and the beautiful Lake Malawi at sunset. Having the opportunity to show and sell his paintings with Worldstock is encouraging to him and his dream is to one day have a market abroad and be able to paint in America. What is Worldstock?
