Invitations
28th August, 2016
On June 12 of this year, Tom was contacted by Angela Di Bello, Director of the Agora Gallery, of Chelsea, New York City. Following Tom's submission of his artwork, Angela stated in an email to Tom, "your work and accomplished technique of captured light as the primary visceral element that captures and enforces your style of idealized realism, qualifies your work for Agora Gallery representation". The representation included a 'showing' on the main floor of the Gallery, together with a one year representation of Tom's artwork, including Internet Exposure, Advertising, PR and Professional Guidance. Though this would have been a significant opportunity for Tom's work to be exposed internationally, Tom has decided to decline for the present because of personal commitments, but is open to this opportunity in the near future. He is very grateful to Angela and her team for her generous appraisal of his work.
