In the world of entertainment, he created memorable characters such as the Clown from The Complete Works of Beranger in 1836. With his vibrant and colorful illustrations, Thompson brought this playful character to life, captivating audiences with his comedic antics. But Thompson's talent extended beyond the realm of entertainment. He also had a keen eye for capturing beauty in nature, as seen in his depiction of the Crown of Cornflowers from The Complete Works of Beranger.

In another series titled Passing Young Girls from The Complete Works of Beranger, Thompson showcased his ability to capture human emotions and expressions. Each portrait tells a unique story, revealing glimpses into the lives and experiences of these young women. Thompson's artistic prowess wasn't limited to illustrations alone; he also excelled in engraving. One notable piece is The Survivors of the Crew of the "Nisero, " which depicts their release from captivity by the Rajah of Tenom in Acheen. This powerful image serves as a testament to both Thompson's technical skill and storytelling ability. Moving away from historical events, Thompson ventured into portraiture with an engraving titled The Late Sir John Thompson. Here, he pays tribute to an influential figure through meticulous attention to detail and careful composition. Shifting gears once again, Three apprentices and a canteen girl from Westoe Colliery showcases Thompson's ability to capture everyday life with authenticity. Through this piece, he gives us a glimpse into working-class existence during that era while highlighting individual personalities within the group. Thompson's versatility is further evident in Jordans Enamelled Signs - each page bursting with color thanks to his masterful use of lithography techniques.
