Hi, I'm Tom Mcdonald! 👋

Hi everyone, I’m an artist in Ashburn, Virginia, making textured acrylic paintings and mixed media scenes of Western landscapes, quiet interiors, open roads, and surreal figures. I’m here to share, learn, and connect with artists who enjoy thoughtful, handmade work.

Welcome Tom! Great to have you here.
Western landscapes and surreal figures is a compelling pairing, and the fact that you're building them in acrylic and mixed media means texture becomes part of the storytelling, not just surface.
