Tom J Manning is a multi-disiplinary mixed media Artist known for his distinct but versatile conceptual design work, narrative illustration, expressionistic and energetically charged paintings.

Based in the beautiful city of Bristol, UK, Tom experiments with various ways of creating movement and flow within his illustrations by mixing together all manner of homemade inks and paints to create a variety of experimental effects.

Originally trained as a Graphic and Product Designer, Tom now incorporates this experience into his illustration work to form a hybrid of Fine Art and contemporary design.

"There is a quality to Tom's work that is quite reminiscent of a 'controlled explosion' complete with varying degrees of emotion that the viewer can relate to at a glimpse."

"Tom has been working as a freelance designer for one of my websites www.earlylearninghq.org.uk over the past few months. He has worked on various projects designing printable teaching resources for schools. I have been delighted with the standard of his work and his overall attitude. I have found him to be very hard working and reliable with a good eye for design and a conscientious and flexible approach."
