About the Item
A pencil drawing
Tom Leveritt (1976) was raised in Texas, sent to boarding school in the UK, got a first at Cambridge, an Army Scholarship into the 5th Royal Inniskilling Dragoon Guards and a Queen Mother Bar Scholarship to Middle Temple, and became a painter. He has received the Carroll Medal for Portraiture from the Royal Society of Portrait Painters, the Somerset Maugham Award for Literature, and the Betty Trask Award for a first novel.
EXHIBITIONS: BP Award at the National Portrait Gallery (1999, 2000, 2007, 2020); Royal Society of Portrait Painters, Royal Institute of Oil Painters, Christie’s.
COMMISSIONS: He takes commissions to paint portraits (or, in theory, anything). He will quote you a price but you are allowed to negotiate with him.
DIGITAL: He achieved viral fame with cameras re-engineered for the non-visible spectrum, resulting in this 2014 viral video, and undertakes occasional ultraviolet filmmaking projects.
WRITING: His 2008 novel The exchange-rate between love and money was described as 'verbally dazzling' (Guardian), 'love story, tone poem, and seething meditation on history and politics... by turns exuberant, furious, bawdy, and mournful' (New Yorker), with a 'frankly awful jacket' (Daily Mail). He then wrote screenplays, one of which was turned into the worst film ever made, no link. More recently, 'The Pale Cast of Thought,' a 2013 article about ayahuasca (Harper's Magazine).
