Ohio native Tom Lessner now lives and plays in Philadelphia. Thom’s parodied cartoon renditions of pop culture figures have become his signature style. Thom is an ardent skateboarder and a rock n' roll star in the costume-clad band Sweatheart.
Thom has done work for and with POKETO, Shepherd Fairey, and a multitude of magazines. Locally, you can find his work at Philly’s SPECTOR Gallery, but his pieces have traveled to LA, NY, and overseas!

The very talented Mr. Lessner brings bipolar hero worship alive in this tribute to both Patrick Nagel and Diamond Dave. The 80's, 90's and the naughty auties all in one!
