## About Tom Holland

Tom Holland, born in 1936, is an American visual artist whose documented practice spans painting, constructed surfaces, and clay-based work. Available biographical material describes an unusually broad material vocabulary, including fiberglass, aluminum, epoxy and oil paint, plywood, paper, copper, marble, beads, and ceramic media. His clay works may incorporate watercolor, acrylic urethane, and ceramic glazes. This range makes “mixed media” a useful starting description, although the materials and method of an individual object should be recorded more precisely. The collected institutional links connect Holland with records at MoMA, the National Gallery of Art, Getty ULAN, VIAF, the Library of Congress, and other authority services. The available excerpts do not securely establish a named movement, recurring subject, or formal series, so those classifications should not be guessed. Because the name is shared by several public figures, matching the birth year and institutional artist identifiers is especially important when researching or appraising a work.

## Common works and media

Available biographical material associates Holland with mixed-media art made from combinations of fiberglass, aluminum, plywood, paper, copper, marble, beads, epoxy paint, and oil paint. Clay-based works may employ watercolor, acrylic urethane, or ceramic glazes. In auction and appraisal contexts, objects should therefore be described by their actual support, construction, and surface media rather than assigned a broad category from appearance alone. The source pack does not establish recurring subjects, named series, edition practices, or a complete catalogue of work types.

## Market and appraisal context

Collectors may encounter Tom Holland through mixed-media works, painted constructions, or clay-based objects. Appraisal should begin with identity confirmation and a precise description of the object's support, surface, materials, dimensions, date, signature, and construction. Holland's varied material practice makes generic labels such as “painting” potentially incomplete; fiberglass, aluminum, plywood, epoxy, ceramic glaze, and other components may be relevant to identification and condition assessment. When suitable records are available, comparisons should use genuinely similar works and consider sale date and realized price. The collected pack does not include individual lots or major-auction-house analysis, so it does not support a price forecast or a claim about market direction.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine public artist-identity research with auction records, auction-house context, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots when those records are available. Claims here are limited to the evidence contained in the collected public source pack.
