Tom Jilesen Artist Profile

Holland native and Sideshow artist, Tom Jilesen discusses how all you need is a piece of paper and a pencil. The rest is up to you.

Tom reflects on the experience of creativity in youth, making less than perfect copies of He-Man toys. And while most kids leave behind their creative endeavors, Tom committed himself to the art of drawing. He worked in illustration, animation, games, and more, before finally arriving at Sideshow.

You can see Tom’s work in the Black Bolt & Medusa Fine Art Print, the Court of the Dead: The Chronicle of the Underworld, the Cable Premium Format Figure, and more.
