Michael Tatom

Michael Tatom was born in Los Alamos, New Mexico to a family of artists and designers. He moved to California in 1980 where he attended the Gemological Institute. After working in the San Francisco Bay area for ten years, Michael returned to Santa Fe, New Mexico where he established a custom jewelry business, eventually expanding to Aspen, Vail, and Hawaii. He continues to live and work in Santa Fe.
Michael is known for his unique elegant contemporary designs, exacting craftsmanship and the finest quality gemstones. In 1994 Michael started sculpting a series of small bronze animals. In these animals he has magically captured the shape and movement of the animal through a simple graceful technique. His patinas have a stunning, otherworldly look that is rarely duplicated.
Michael’s work can be found in fine art galleries in Jackson Hole WY, Delray Beach FL, and other cities. For a location near you, contact us.
