ABOUT NICHOLAS HARPER
 

Thank you for taking the time to check out my page and my work.  As you get to know me I think one thing will become apparent, it’s all about the art!  I started drawing as a young child as a way to pass the hours of solitude, a coping mechanism I’m sure.  I found shelter in the tip of a Design pen gliding it’s way across a bright sheet of Arches.  Somewhere, where the ink met the fine tooth of the paper, there lie an entire world of potential, where anything was possible and every question had an answer.

Years later, after making art not only a profession, but a lifestyle, I’ve come to know that for every question answered, there lies many more to be uncovered.  Perhaps there in lies the wisdom behind the saying “It’s in the journey, not the destination.”

The friends I’ve met along the way have been a great source of inspiration and motivation.  Whether they are artists, collectors, enthusiasts or just plain passers by taking a peak into the world of art, they have all contributed to my work and my life and for that I am grateful.  I hope that you stick around and perhaps our journeys can be made all the better by traveling them together.

 
     
ARTIST STATEMENT & RESUME
I have to admit, I'm not one for artist statements when it pertains to my work. I think that if you spend some time on this site, looking at my portfolio and reading the articles I post, you'll begin to get a sense of what my work is about. My most recent article "ICON" is a good place to start. I can provide you with a formal statement and resume if that is something you would wish to have. Also, I love to eat, so feel free to take me out to lunch if you really want the skinny.
 
SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS
I have guest lectured at local and regional colleges and universities as well as at the Rogue Buddha Gallery for visiting classes. Lectures have focused on both, being a practicing artist and being a gallery owner. If you are interested in finding out more about these lecture topics, fees or to book an engagement, please contact me through the gallery.
 
CONSULTATIONS
I am also available for one-on-one artist consultations.  This can include portfolio reviews, artwork critique and/or practical business advice for artists.
