Fomison had an early interest in archaeology but it was his later vocaiton as an artist that brought him fame.
Many of his works are monochrome, but where they are not, those that include an element of landscape are in colours that show a deep familiarity with the New Zealand landscape.
Fomison is now regarded as one of the most outstanding - if singular - New Zealand artists of the 20th century. Always an outsider it is supremely ironic that his works are now collectable commodities of the arts establishment.
