Tom Porta
Tom Porta was born in 1970 in Milan, where he currently lives and works.
Since childhood, he has shown a strong attitude towards drawing and the arts in general. He graduated as Master of Art and started a successful career in illustration and photography. He had been living in Italy, Germany, France, Japan and the United States and, since the very beginning of his career, he chose to merge his life experiences with his own painting.
Since 2003, Tom has been painting full-time, putting aside illustration and photography for a while,
entering in important collections as well as auctions such as Sotheby's and Christie's. Ranked as one of the top 100 Italian artists, Porta was invited to participate in the 500 years of Italian painting, a collection presenting artworks from the late 1500s until today.
