Tom’s dream summer getaway

Tom’s dream summer getaway

Tom Rodriguez —INSTAGRAM

When he isn’t working on TV shows or films, Tom Rodriguez draws fantasy-themed characters and portraits. Between work commitments, he shares some of these digital illustrations on his Instagram page.

A longtime comic book reader, Tom originally wanted to be a full-time artist, before deciding to pursue an acting career.

Asked what type of art project he would dedicate himself to if he had the time, the “Dragon Lady” star said that he already has some things in mind.

“I have a few personal projects that I have slowly been developing through the years,” Tom tells the Inquirer. “Although I have not been afforded the proper amount of time to get serious with them, I am hoping to find the right time to start realizing my vision for [such] projects and potentially share those pieces of me with the public.”

And if he gets sufficient downtime, Tom would also like to explore his dream summer destination, for some inspiration and well-deserved R&R.

That could be anywhere, “as long as it is with loved ones,” he shares.

But if he were to choose a specific place? Tom says, “I have longed to visit the temples and ruins in South America—to step on the ground where ancient civilizations once proudly prospered, leaving behind something bigger than themselves.”—OLIVER PULUMBARIT
