Tommy’s artwork reflects his fascination with realism in northern European sixteenth and seventeenth-century art. For several years his painting has concentrated on the precise depiction of interactions between materials, pressure sources, and light and shadow. The artist subtly marries photo-realism with painterly texture and freedom, in the creation of these evocative works. Tommy was born in Sweden in 1958 and went to the Orland Ever art school. He lives and works in Långasjö (småland) and Stockholm. He regularly participates in solo and group exhibitions worldwide.
