Artists Statement/Bio
Tom Francesconi’s paintings have become nationally recognized for their unique, interpretive style, flavored with a richness of color and decisive brushwork. “As an artist, I have chosen to express myself through the language of paint. Stirred emotions are the essential beginnings of that language. It is my hope that my paintings will echo that emotional response and the viewer will share in my spirited statements.”
Tom studied watercolor at the American Academy of Art in Chicago. He has earned signature membership in numerous watercolor societies, including the American Watercolor Society, National Watercolor Society, Watercolor West and the Transparent Watercolor Society of America, of which he has been honored with ‘Master’ status. Tom has served as president of the Transparent Watercolor Society of America. He has received many awards in regional and national exhibitions, including the 1st Place Award at the 43rd Annual Watercolor West Exhibition and the Soft Edged Expressionism Award at the 32nd Adirondacks Exhibition of American Watercolors. Along with his weekly classes in Chicago, Tom has conducted workshops throughout the United States, France and Croatia. Tom’s work has been featured in numerous books and magazine articles.
