From Theme Parks to Tiki

(and everything in-between!)

Tom Thordarson, or “THOR” as he is nicknamed by friends and collectors, is a painter, designer and storyteller, renowned for his inventive vision and whimsical characterizations of our world. His life as an artist began when he was just old enough to hold a pencil, and art would soon become a powerful tool that he would use to communicate his endless spirit of adventure.

Thor graduated with honors from Pasadena Art Center College of Design, CA in Illustration, and was immediately discovered by the entertainment/theme park industry. He has held numerous executive titles with Walt Disney Imagineering, Universal Studios and other theme park and attraction design companies. His designs have come to life in Tokyo Disney's \"Journey To The Center Of The Earth\" and “20,000 Leagues Under The Sea” rides, among numerous others.

The early years of his life shaped the mind and spirit felt in all of THOR’s work to this day, which is displayed by his uncanny ability to take us into truly enchanting places, luring the viewer’s desire to step into his paintings and be part of his stories.

Now with his podcast \"All Things Thor!\" he can share even more of the amazing stories behind the creation of his work across all areas of the design world!
