About The Artist

A keen landscape artist from an early age, Nic gained his first commission – an epic 3 metre tableau of historic scenes of home town Havant in oils. This painting which is still on show at the council's offices was featured on the BBC’s Catalogue of Publicly-Owned Art (now artuk.org).

Over the next decade, working mostly from life, Nic attempted to capture the landscape around him, even when that landscape was the city. At this time, watercolours proved the ideal medium, being small and portable.

In 2003 Nic returned to oils and painted two large canvasses featuring figures for the first time. The painting ‘Boys in Dune’ was snapped up on its first day of exhibition, and remains Nic’s most popular seller, being reproduced onto canvas. At this time a short series of landscapes in pastels was created (2003-2004).

A decade of oil painting followed before a sense of rediscovery in watercolour.

Digital Art

Working as a graphic designer provides the tools and knowledge to create digital art. Nic’s works on screens are printed using the industry’s best possible materials, creating a valuable ‘original print’. The iPad range is really terribly popular and ideal for commissions, with its unique hybrid mannerism. You can see works on show at Treagust and Co, North Street Emsworth, and at Emsworth Sailing Club. Details on Nic's Website.
