Tom Liguori is reinventing what’s possible in the art world through innovative large format cell and holographic pieces. He grew up in the Bronx, New York and graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering from Manhattan College before relocating to the west coast to earn a MBA from San Diego State University. He and his father founded a mail order manufacturing business, National Pen, which grew to over 2,000 employees during his 32-year tenure, and worked with brands such as Disney, Warner Brothers, the NFL, NBA, and NHL. After selling National Pen, Tom started a venture capital business and secured over two dozen patents.
Tom’s dual responsibilities of research and development and marketing during his years at National Pen catalyzed an interest in developing new art techniques as a creative outlet. Through over six years of R&D, he developed a resin and technique that achieved the effect he was looking for in his cellular art. He then looked to other unique, unusual mediums, and eventually built his “cave” - a vibration-free zone needed for the delicate process of producing holographs. All proceeds from his artwork are donated to three 501(c)(3) organizations serving local and international populations - Rady Children’s Hospital, the Gary Sinise Foundation, and Mercy Ships.
When he’s not creating in his cave, Tom spends a lot of time on the tennis court and enjoys maintaining his overall health and fitness. He’s been married to his wife, Sue, for 46 years, and has three children, Lisa, Catherine, and Daniel.
