R. Tom Gilleon

Known for his luminescent style and authentic portrayal of northern plains tribes, Tom Gilleon is one of the top selling artists in the Contemporary Western art movement.

His sophisticated use of colors has been described as “magical elegance” by Patrick Hemingway and compared by art critics to Edgar Degas and Mark Rothko. In addition to being an American Western fine art painter and cattle rancher in Montana, Gilleon is widely acclaimed as one of the most innovative artists in the world, co-creating the digital art platform, PIXoilsTM with creative designer Marshall Monroe.

Formerly with Walt Disney Imagineering for 30-years, Gilleon worked alongside Disney art legend Herb Ryman and created the founding design concepts for EPCOT and Disneyland Paris, Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Shanghai theme parks. Gilleon’s works are held in the permanent collections of the Whitney Western Art Museum, The C.M. Russell Museum, the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum, the Scottsdale Museum of The West, and the Booth Museum of Western Art.
