Colorful Combinations
Canvas Color
Color reigns in artist Barry Thomas’ West Little Rock studio, with bright dabs of paint covering nearly every surface. An Impressionist painter, Thomas knows the impact of color. Similar to Claude Monet, one of the founders of Impressionism, Thomas excludes browns and blacks from all his work. The result: vibrant canvases that reflect the purest hues and colors.

Now, they offer a rare mix of historic charm with refurbished downtowns and modern amenities with top-notch restaurants, hotels and shopping. Pack your bags for a long weekend getaway and enjoy the best of both worlds.
