"Since I'm stuck inside due to the coronavirus, I wanted to try out something new," Tomic told Bored Panda. And even though these portraits may not have challenged his skills as much as the impressive projects he's known for, they sure were an exciting distraction from what has been going on in the world the past couple of months.
"When I want to expand the series and reimagine someone new, I usually simply listen to my fans and pick one of the famous people they've suggested."
Tomic has been drawing since kindergarten but he began taking it seriously at about 16 to 18 years old. From that point on, he has almost never had a day when he didn't draw something. He's completely self-taught and is constantly stepping outside his comfort zone to continue learning. If you want to see what the artist is truly capable of, head on to his social media accounts and check out his large scale family portraits. That series has taken him 3 years to finish and it's the one he's most proud of.
