"Thomas Wimberly III is an artist and designer from Baton Rouge, Louisiana, currently working in Los Angeles. After earning his BFA in Graphic Design from Louisiana State University he has been acting as an art director and designer, both for local agencies, and for himself as a freelancer.
In 2015, Thomas and his close friend Chase Mullen opened “Unit 7”- their shared studio-space that occasionally doubles as a pop-up gallery. Since then, he’s spent his time returning to the fine art world, first exploring the styles of his inspirations, before beginning to develop his style in late 2017.
In November 2017, Thomas, along with a few other emerging artists, was selected out of a group of 300+ to show at Shepard Fairey’s gallery, “Subliminal Projects” for “PEACE” an exhibit showcasing never before seen photos by Jim Marshall. This opened the door to having Shepard has a contact, which led to him being hired on at Studio Number One, Shepard’s creative agency where he is currently the art director.
He’s currently dedicating his time to developing his craft and creating work that speaks to the issues and concerns in our society he thinks should be addressed.
Thomas currently lives in Los Angeles, with his wife Brooke, and their bulldog, Macintosh."
