“Hail to the Lion” Artist Tom Mosser
Price range: $175.00 through $475.00
As an artist, Tom Mosser, is always looking around for ideas whether it be at a home depot, at a Pep Boys, at sporting good store, or in the alleyway dumpster near his studio.
Says Tom, “The Andy Warhol Museum is a 4-mile straight shot from my studio on RT. 28 here in Pittsburgh. I go there several times a year. I’ve watched a PBS documentary about him over 50 times. The little Andy on my shoulder is always asking me ‘How can I create art in a way that hasn’t been done before? How about painting with balls, tires and sneakers. These items all leave unique imprints and are perfect for creating logo treatments especially.”
Tom feels that virtually everything that people do is inspired by an idea, whether it’s what to eat for breakfast, a shot selection in tennis or, in his case, how to create art. Says Tom,”Take sports. Every shot and strategy in a tennis match are based on micro ideas. Basketball moves and strategy are all micro ideas. Golf strategy is immersed in creative thought. The very core of all sports and strategy is based on creativity. Ideas and acting on those ideas are the foundation.”
He continues, “Andy said ‘Art is are all around us.’ and that’s true. But more importantly so are great ideas. The idea of looking around ourselves and finding something completely fresh and new. If you do that, if you say, paint with a Penn State football, stuff happens. Something completely fresh and creative, happens. Shooting for for those elusive original or semi-original thoughts should always be a goal.”
