Art, Surfing, Mixing Music, & JustFor.Fans – All in Day's Work for Tommy Alexander

With his lean frame and blonde, good looks, multi-talented Tommy Alexander looks every inch a surfer. It could be in the genes – his dad was also a surfer and encouraged his son to take up the sport from an early age. But little Tommy was reluctant and fearful. That all changed when he turned twelve, which was also the year he discovered his other great passion – painting. But this came more naturally: his aunt is a professional artist and his sister teaches it. With his art, Tommy concentrates on capturing the expressive landscapes of his native California, as well as homoerotic portraits. In addition, he is a DJ. You can check out his work on his YouTube page.

When he turned 20, Tommy came out to his parents. He recalls being bullied in high school, but his family was supportive with his Dad telling him he already knew and was just waiting for Tommy to tell him. He came to be JustFor.Fans model (where he is /surferjock805) on a dare by his ex-husband, and has been thriving on the site ever since. He speaks to EDGE about the numerous facets of his life.
