About Us

Tom

Tom Griffin is currently an orthodontist in Cary, North Carolina. He concluded one year of college education with a major in fine arts and a music minor before switching to a pre-dental curriculum. He began painting Christmas cards for his wife, Liz, during their courtship. He continued to paint Christmas cards, predominately with a "snowman" theme, when he opened his orthodontic practice. The popularity of these images with patients and dentists who referred patients to Tom brought about Joshua's interest in starting this web-based business.

Liz

Elizabeth Griffin met Tom while disecting a cadaver during her first year of dental school. Tom was a prosector (teacher's assistant) in his junior year of dental school. Within a short and inevitable time they dated, engaged and married in 1987. She remains his most trusted critic and artistic advisor; In addition she is his best and only registered friend! Liz handles the day to day business management of Tom Griffin Art and Prints. Liz is the glue that holds this operation intact.

Joshua

Joshua Griffin is the reason this site exists. Josh is the son of Tom and Elizabeth. He has an entrepreneurial spirit and lots of positive energy. He thought that many more people could enjoy the work of his father if it was only more accessible. Josh is the presiding agent over all business operations. He is also the webmaster of this site. If you have questions or comments of any kind they should be directed to Josh, who will respond immediately or go to bed without dinner.
