TOM MEAD

I am a surreal artist balancing between the fine art and visual arts world. I mainly draw anthropomorphic and surrealist characters in pen and ink, and digital, based on my childhood fear of characters from ‘Beatrix potters ballet’. This was a film my mother innocently put on for myself and my sister when were children not realising that one of us would be traumatised by it!

Recently I became the creative director for a games company called ‘Spiral circus games’ for which I am the co-founder. With this medium I have been able to explore more world design within my work and push my ideas much further. Our debut game ‘Silt’ came out in 2022 worldwide and on all consoles and we are busy working on our new title now.
