About Elijah Thompson

I'm a new professional artist, just sold 2 watercolors in April 2023 and a ceramic lizard in September 2023. I've been taking art classes continuously since falk 2021 and plan to continue--my goal is to simply keep improving so I can add more beauty and joy to this increasingly drab, dull world. I live in Austin, Texas with my cat, Claws, and am a retired mechanical engineer, writer, fitness coach, open-water lifeguard (Barton Springs) and was a volunteer firefighter/motorcycle medic. I welcome constructive criticism and am happy to give it! I speak some French (intermediate/DELF A2/B1) and a little bit of Hebrew and Arabic. And I'm gay.
