...shaping artistic visions of light
| Tomás J. Fernández is a Christian visual artist with a monumental heart for God and an ability to capture the beauty he admires in God's creation. His ability to transcend his medium is profound. His kinetic metal sculptures respond to a gentle touch or warm breeze. As an American abstract painter, he sculpts the canvas with vibrant colors and textures. His handcrafted cross pendant has given hope to inner city children and his custom metal sculptures have filled collections from the Presidential Library to private collectors, an airport, and businesses. His love of God, family, neighbor, community, country, and planet is |
| manifested through... community projects, memorials, environmental projects, and the tremendous power and light within his works. He has lectured across the US, been featured in books, magazines, and television, yet continues to pray in humility to serve God faithfully in each divine commission. Fernández' first divine commission, changing his life forever, was the monumental "Crux Gloria" in Purcellville, Virginia. This cross of light has and continues to touch lives every day. Before the divine commission that would not only change his life, but also redesign his artistic vision, Fernandez had already gained great momentum and respect as a metal sculptor and visual artist. Tomas Fernandez was born in Washington, D.C., in December of 1955. "My Parents, Julian and Helen Fernandez, nurtured my artistic development from the very beginning. My home was an eclectic mixture of Spanish and Irish culture." Tomas started out primarily as a painter; as a young man, he traveled Europe and the America's seeking inspiration and education in the arts. By 1987, he was building a life size metal winged horse for the Winchester Regional Airport Business Park. That same year he was appointed to the Artist’s Advisory Committee for the Loudoun Arts Council and featured on national television in a feature length program of Capital Edition's, "Metallic Nature," a program that was nominated for an Emmy award. In 1988, Fernandez was featured in the Washington Post as the organizer and administrator of the Loudoun County Studio Tour. He was also featured on a national television feature, Washington D.C. Artist, and on USA Today. He worked with the Special Olympics and the Soel Olympic Park, as well as the International Congress of Philanthropy in Toronto, Canada. Fernandez designed and produced models for paintings and sculptures for the 200 year anniversary celebration of the United States Constitution and received official recognition from the Daughters of the American Revolution and Chief Justice Burger's Bicentennial Commission. The most pivotal event of 1988 was his meeting another artist and painter, the woman he would marry... read more... |
