Welcome to the Tom Fagan blog!


Hi, I'm Tom Fagan, I am a San Diego based fine artist specializing in Plein Air, people, places and events. My mediums include oils, acrylic, water color, charcoal, pen & ink etc.. I love to paint events as they take place without using a photograph. Just paint as the scene develops. My Live Event Artist website showcases my wedding and event work.

Las Vegas

Here I am, Saturday night on the Vegas strip, to paint the goings on. I position myself next to the Bellagio fountains because I loved the composition that developed in front of me, with the Eiffel Tower and the Paris Globe, etc. After 4 hours of catching spray from the fountains, 46 degrees seemed more like 36.
This was early on as the night flew by.
Try this one: work on your painting while motorcycle cops' lights are flashing on the canvas. It's a real challenge.

Here's the finished product. Thanks for viewing my art!
