    Reproduction Drawing I (2009-2010). In this particular piece we see a mother with two small children in her lap, as the children seem to be struggling to be free from her arms, her expression remains calm and loving. The lack of bright colors really makes you focus on the drawing itself and the actions taking place within it. A mother will always love her babies even if they want to be free of her reach, and that teaches the viewers that a mothers love in unconditional.

    Racquel I See You (2018). As you can see this work of art has various different pieces and parts put together to make it whole. Thomas uses her partner as a muse for her work, and in this piece she is the center of it. The surrounding colors are muted so it won’t draw the attention away from the woman.
