Tanner is a very successful New York Artist who is also known as an actor, playwright, performer, and cabaret singer (in drag). His art works, both 2 and 3 dimensional, are beautifully crafted pieces, a mix of painting, drawing, collage and sculpture all done up with glittery, sumptuous materials. Often incorporating found objects, they reflect his love of nostalgia in both form and substance. With vintage jewelry, medallions containing words from beloved old popular music, and much glitter and sparkle, these works take on a sophisticated ambiance where the subject and manipulation of media intrigue as well as delight. They are joyous works, sometimes outrageous, always beautifully crafted with an air of excessive and explosive character.
