In 1974, he visited Nantucket and fell in
love with the unspoiled island and has returned every summer since.
His gallery, the Mielko Gallery, is the oldest gallery on South
Wharf.
In 1980, he moved to Santa Barbara, California,
where he now spends half the year. From the Atlantic to the Pacific,
Tom Mielko brings the glorious images of the sea to life in his
original paintings, serigraphs, giclee prints and graphics. His
bicoastal lifestyle adds dynamic perspective and uniquely seasoned
dimension to his Romantic Realist style.
Acknowledged globally as a master of visual story
telling, Mielko is best known for his finely honed ability to
communicate with the viewer in a personal, intimate way. His passion
for living and love for his craft radiate from every brushstroke
of his work. Tom Mielko makes it easy to believe in the magic
of nature and romance.
