YonkersTom the Artist creates bold, nostalgic artwork that blends sports, music, and pop culture through a 90’s-inspired lens. Known for handcrafted 3D sports cards and expressive paintings, his work turns familiar icons into collectible pieces of art. Growing up surrounded by sports culture and street energy, Tom brings that same raw authenticity into every piece he creates. His studio is a place where nostalgia, creativity, and craftsmanship collide. Through every canvas and custom card, he invites collectors to experience sports and culture in a completely new way.
About
In the 90s, sports cards, playground legends, video games and hip-hop culture were everywhere. Kids hoarded cards like currency, sneakers squeaked on blacktop courts, and creativity lived in sketchbooks, on walls, and in music.
That era shaped YonkersTom the Artist.
Today, Tom channels those memories into art that feels like stepping back into that time. His work blends hand-painted pieces, custom 3D sports cards, and nostalgic sports storytelling. Every piece is handmade and layered with detail, turning flat cards into dimensional art and sports moments into collectible memories.
But this art isn’t just about sports. It’s about culture.
The music playing in the background.
The playground courts.
The feeling of opening a fresh pack of cards.
Through his art, Tom shows a different side of himself, one built on creativity, nostalgia, and passion.
