About Nicholas

Nicholas Peters is a versatile artist specializing in portraiture from photographs. His passion for art ignited at a young age, as he began drawing popular cartoon characters in elementary school. Over time, his skills evolved into the realistic style he embraces today. Nicholas aims for perfection, not only in accurately reproducing what he sees but also in creating portraits that truly capture the subject's personality.

Throughout the years, Nicholas has primarily worked on commission, with his first sale being a large pencil drawing of the Chicago Board of Trade commissioned by a trader. He has since completed numerous pencil portraits from photographs and has expanded his repertoire to include oil painting. Alongside portraiture, Nicholas is passionate about graphic design, woodworking, and all things creative.

"Nick is my go-to artist for everything from recreating a picture of my childhood home, to family wedding portraits, to a fun sign for our cabin and fire pit. Watercolor, pencil, even chalk! His work is incredible!"
