GERI THOM
Born and raised in Prince George, B.C., Geri enjoyed a lifelong career in Mechanical Drafting and Design. It began with logging and pulp mill equipment in Prince George, then trucks with Western Star and finally Aircraft modification with KF Aerospace in Kelowna, B.C. She also volunteered for many years in the fields of suicide intervention and education.
Following her retirement in 2010, Geri carved a new life path into painting. For the past eleven years, she has been a dedicated student with Gene Prokop from Pro's Art School of Edmonton, through his satellite classes in Kelowna, B.C. and has come to love the process of painting with oils.
She has sold her works privately and through commissions. Recently some of her works were used by the film industry in a movie filmed in Kelowna.
