Thomas Flintham studied BA Fine Art at De Montfort University in Leicester, and in 2009 he graduated with a distinction in his Masters degree in Illustration at Camberwell College of the Arts, South London. He currently lives in a nice little house in Camberwell with his girlfriend Bethany.
Thomas works digitally, drawing straight into his computer with his Wacom tablet, and in the old fashioned way on paper with brush and ink and drawing pens. He loves to draw and doodle. He has a very loose grip on reality, and enjoys disappearing into his own imagination in search of new characters, worlds and ideas to draw.
His work is influenced by his interest in all kinds of books, films, comics and Japanese video games. He loves Christmas and chocolate. He owns (almost) too many books.
Thomas recently won the runners up prize for The Artbook cover competition, with his captivating combined lighthouse and maze artwork.
