Bio

Cami Thompson is passionate about her art. A native of Michigan, she has lived and worked in the Rocky Mountains for the past 50 years, which has helped her to paint the natural landscape, its wildlife, and people in a celebration of light and color. Having moved to northern New Mexico in 2001, Cami’s paintings reflect the incredible scenery of her natural environment. Growing a beautiful garden full of dahlias with her husband each year brings another joyful subject matter to her work.

In the 1990s she traveled to Alaska for four consecutive summers, where she painted over 250 paintings, taught workshops, and finalized each trip with a one-woman exhibit. All but a very few of those paintings sold to Alaskans, and her work is in the permanent collection of the Baranov Museum on Kodiak Island.

Her paintings are hanging in private and corporate collections throughout the world. Cami has won numerous awards and recognition in her field including:

About My Art

The best award for Cami is to have her paintings giving light to the lives of others. Supporting art in the public school system is one of the most important issues today, she believes. Aside from training new artists the skills they will need, it also teaches art appreciation to a whole new generation of young people.
