"If you're like me, the word "hometown" conjures up a whole storehouse of memories.

Hometown Evening ("Hometown Memories III")
Hometown Evening Depicts the center of Thom's quaint home town of Placerville CA when he was a boy.
Thom takes the opportunity to showcase some of his favorite vintage cars in his artwork including the oh-so-elegant 1932 Ford Coupe.
In a recent PBS Biography, Thomas said Hometown Evening is one of his
most treasured creations. While all three are certainly nostalgia pieces... this
one was special to him because it gave him the opportunity to paint his
favorite classic car: a "32 Ford Coupe and also because he experimented with a
technique that brought the lights in Town Center to a new level of "golden
realness".
Hometown Evening features 7 hidden N's in tribute to his wife, Nanette.
Hometown Evening belongs to a collection called "Hometown Memories"

Publisher Proof (P/P) Canvas
The Publisher Proofs are limited to 12% of the Standard Numbered total
edition size, making the edition scarcer and more desired. These
lithographs on canvas are individually hand highlighted. P/Ps are
designated with the letters P/P during the numbering process. Each piece is
individually hand-numbered with an P/P designation after the print number to
correspond with the certificate.
These are considered highly collectible due to the very small amounts made
and these sell out faster than any other edition as a general rule.
