Tor Bjurström studerade vid Konstnärsförbundets skola i Stockholm, där bland andra Richard Bergh och Karl Nordström var verksamma som lärare, hos Zahrtmann i Köpenhamn och som elev till Henri Matisse i Paris. Bjurström var verksam som lärare på Valands konstskola i Göteborg och spred där Matisses expressionistiska färglära. Hans elever kom i efterhand att kallas Göteborgskoloristerna och anses av kritiker utgöra en helt ny inriktning inom svenskt 1900-talsmåleri. Till dessa brukar räknas Ivan Ivarson, Ragnar Sandberg, Inge Schiöler och Åke Göransson. Bjurström återgav gärna vegetation och landskap i starka färger.
