The Story Behind the Work

About Tommy Gorlami

I am a Canadian abstract artist working in acrylics, driven by emotion and instinct. My work explores the space between chaos and control, using palette knives and vibrant colors to express what words cannot.

Self-Taught Journey

I began painting three years ago with no formal training — just a blank canvas, vibrant acrylics, and the need to express something unspeakable.
What started as a creative outlet became an ongoing exploration of color, mood, and movement.

Each piece reflects a moment of energy. No sketches, no plans — only flow.

Living with Art

The paintings I create are made with the intention of adorning my own living spaces. The pieces I have created here are designed to bring visual energy into your space. My creations, whether a print, canvas, pillow, or tote are made for you to live with, not just be looked at. 

“My creativity comes from instinct. I enjoy using vibrant colors that move with emotion and leave space for interpretation.”
