ABOUT SKI ROCHESTER

Skirochester was originally just my screen name when I logged onto web sites or entered contests, but has over-time become my online artist identity. My real name is Tom Moyer. As my screen name suggests, I love to ski and I live in Rochester, New York. 

BACKGROUND:  I have always loved to draw and found my passion for art as a kid. I pursued that interest and studied illustration and design at Nazareth College in Rochester. After graduation, I was hired as a graphic designer in an advertising agency. I am now a senior art director there and continue to grow as an artist and designer. 

In 2012 I started my own original clothing line called Downhill Threads, that is centered around my love for skiing and mountain culture. In 2013 I added posters to the DHT shop, and the first 'Ski New York' poster became the official poster of ISKINY. 

When I find spare time I enjoy entering online t-shirt contests, especially at shirt.woot.com. And I also am available for freelance illustration, and design work. 

PERSONAL LIFE:  This sounds like the beginning of Wheel of Fortune, but I don't know how else to put this... "I have a lovely wife named Sara, and I'm the proud father of two wonderful girls."  I have really loved sharing art with my daughters and having 'art parties' where we sit and color or paint for hours. 

Besides art and skiing, I love to play tennis, soccer, mountain bike, fish, golf, disc golf, volleyball, watch good TV and movies, travel, or just simply lay in my hammock and stare at the trees. I am the type of person who is never bored.
