Hi There,
I'm Bailey Jean Thomas and I'm a visual artist trying to find the place where the unknown meets the familiar. I use mixed media, drawing, and animation to process my fears of the world outside of my body and within. I have a BFA in Sculpture from University of Louisville. My work has been published in Artist Talk Magazine, Best American Comics and The Paris Review.
