Thomas Flynn II is an Atlanta-based painter whose work centers on the forests and natural landscapes of Georgia and the American South. His multilayered sculptural paintings — built from acrylic on canvas, cut and mounted onto hand-shaped wood — use the Southern forest as a visual metaphor for the body and mind. Recurring motifs of trees, light, and hidden forms trace ideas of transformation, concealment, and self-discovery, drawing on Appalachian folk traditions that see the forest as both a living, sentient force and a place of caution.
As a nature artist working in Atlanta, Flynn treats the Georgia landscape not as backdrop but as collaborator — a living presence his paintings are in constant conversation with.
