Nick was first attracted to print making while hanging out at the Zeller 9 Gallery on the Fulham Road in Chelsea. After sessions at Winchester Art College studying etching, he was truly hooked. In the US at the Pacific Arts League of  Palo Alto, Nick studied with Adele Seltzer (who had worked with Nathaniel Oliviera), and switched allegiance from etching to monotype printmaking.  In Taos, Nick met Michael Vigil, an inspiring and generous artist and printmaker, and Nick continues to print at Michael's studio, Graphic Impressions. 
Recently, Nick has returned to etching and serigraphs, with thought-provoking work ranging from contemporary takes on Japanese samurai themes, to homages to icons of art and music.

To Read the Tribute.....
“I am nuts about trees, I even speak to them... and to the branches I cut along the arroyos to create my lamps. I ask: speak to me, tell me one of your stories, some dream, some fantasy. Shutting the buzz in my mind, I listen with my eyes, until my hands follow & shape with colorful papers, the story they whisper. Each new lamp is a duo between the peculiar nature of the branches and my own imagination.”

Lana Dura uses only natural colors of Navajo-Churro wool, ranging from black and white through unusual browns, grays (plus hot water and friction), to make their wool felt. Everything we produce is unique in color and patterning - very textural (touch them!) distinctive and joyous. Everything is hand-washable, hand-made in Taos and all the ​flat felts are reversible.
​This historic and now rare breed arrived in this hemisphere with the Spanish Conquistadores in the 1500s. ​ I am fortunate enough ​to have found their wonderful fiber and this thoroughly sustainable material enables me to Give Sheep a Job.

​Anne’s first introduction to felt was as a child visiting her grandparents in Norway where
nearly everyone had a pair of felt boots. When a Danish friend visited her in 1982 she learned
the technique for making felt slippers.  From that point on, felt became a focus for her and
​she eventually wrote five books on the subject, made two videos under the name
