The Art of My Father
When my dad passed away in 2023, we found 5,000 pieces of his art. We had no idea there were so many.
This a son’s effort to show the world the art of his father, William K. Thornton.
Some of My Dad’s Work
He loved painting barns, silos, cotton gins, farm houses, scenes from rural Arkansas and objects around our house. Most were painted or drawn from photographs he took of the subjects. This is a small sample of the legacy he left. Coming soon: his wood carvings! Now, what to do with it all?
