It is very exciting to see your work come together. Your style is very unique. You have the detail, balance, and realism that everyone loves. At the same time, your work bleeds with an imagination that stretches the mind and provokes thought. When I view your landscapes, I wish to be there in that place and experience the surroundings.
Hi Paul, I am a friend of Lindsay's and I must say what a wonderful gift you have. Your work is inspiring and thought provoking. I can't wait to see more.
KT from down on Burkeen Road wants you to come back by about the barn... (she was washing her car and you stopped by her house). 630-879-0238 please call her. Wants to know if you found a place. This is her cousin Maggie in Santa Fe, NM writing while chatting with KT on the phone
Paul Nielson studies privately with his master(in the traditional sense of the word) famed Swiss-born artist Patrick Devonas. Devonas studied at the Atelier, Le Seuer, then went on to receive his Masters from the New York Academy of Art. From which he is prestigiously exhibited and recognized. Patrick and Paul met in 2004 and are still training together. Paul has a second master, William Whitaker, a family friend from who Nielson has learned much of the tradition of “Classical Realism”. William has been painting since 1965 and is world renoun for his portraits. After graduating with a B.A.from BYU, Nielson continued studying the methods of the Academy. Especially after the manner of the Ecole de Beaux Arts from the 19th century France. He began to find his symbolist roots in Puvis de Chavanes and other symbolists. His study was intensive and rigorous in formal academic training, especially of the figure, but he never lost sight of the importance of imagination. He obtained much of his formal training at the Carl Bloch Academy, an academy devoted to figure study and neoclassical ideals led and founded by Patrick and William. Paul finds various patrons, clients and collectors.
