Maggie Thomas was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. She has lived and painted in the Bay Area for the past 20 years working with the form and energy of the land.
A review
of her work in ART IN AMERICA locates her work in "the American tradition
of nature mysticism, a painterly tradition
which claims Albert Pinkham Ryder, Arthur Dove, and Georgia O'Keefe as its
most prominent exemplars.
Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally. She was a visiting artist at the American Academy in Rome in 1998 where she worked on the fountains of Rome series. In 2001, She received a Pollock-Krasner painting grant.
