Thomas' famous paintings such as Fat Rabbit, Angel on Lamb, Men of Vision, Yorktown and Celebrate Santa will be just a few of the images available. See the line here!

Michael Banks - Art on Tar
An excellent collection of Michael Banks’ work is available from Nancy's Yorktown Gallery. Michael Banks stunning work was first discovered by Nancy in May last year and by September, she held a spectacular, very successful show featuring Michael Banks exclusively.

Michael Banks grew up in a housing project in north Alabama, and after struggling with his mother’s death. Michael developed his signature style of painting, with powerful, significant images and extraordinary use of color.

He uses what might be called the Michael Banks technique, covering plywood with roofing tar and bright enamels and acrylics, and then uses tools to incise the outlines of the image.

Nancy feels that “Michael Banks is headed to the Museum of Modern Art someday.” If you are interested in viewing or obtaining Michael Banks fantastic work, Nancy Thomas Gallery has a huge selection and ships anywhere in the U.S. Email us here for more info!
