Fouad Tomb
Fouad Tomb (b.1951) is a Lebanese artist and educator currently residing in Montreal, Canada. He was born in Tripoli, Lebanon, and comes from a family with a strong artistic background, notably his father, Maroun Tomb, a Lebanese painter of Palestinian descent, who made significant contributions to pictorial modernism in Lebanon.
Fouad Tomb's artistic journey was inspired by witnessing his father's passion for art. Despite being a wanderer at heart, he lived in various places, including Dubai and Saudi Arabia, during the Lebanese Civil War. Eventually, he and his family immigrated to Canada, seeking modern values and personal freedoms. It was in Montreal that he was able to rekindle his passion for painting by pursuing formal arts education and training in the techniques of the Great Masters.
