Tommy Montanez
Multimedia fine artist
Hi, I’m Tommy Montanez—a multimedia fine artist based in New Jersey with roots in New York City. My work spans painting, sculpture, photography, and digital design.
I love blending materials, techniques, and textures to tell stories that are raw, layered, and a bit unexpected.

Art’s always been my way of exploring the world—through colour, contrast, and emotion. Whether I’m creating a mixed-media piece or a digital collage, I’m interested in how visuals can spark connection and curiosity. I’m not trying to fit into a box; I’d rather see what happens when I break it open.
Outside the studio, I work as a creative project manager at Orora Visual, where I help turn big visual ideas into real-world brand experiences. It’s a mix of design, planning, and problem-solving—kind of like art-making, just with a lot more emails.
I like to keep things hands-on, honest, and human—whether I’m building an art piece from scratch or working on a commercial display. For me, creativity is as much about the process as it is about the end result.
