Oklahomans for Equality Continue "First Thursday" Art Opening and Exhibit with Creations from Local Artist Nicholas K. Clark
Continuing the monthly showcase of local artists at the Equality Center (621 E. 4th Street in Downtown Tulsa), Oklahomans for Equality will feature Tulsa Artist Nicholas K. Clark with an opening show and reception on Thursday, August 6th from 6-9pm and continuing throughout the month of August.
Nicholas's work is a direct reflection of his optimistic personality. From vivid oranges to metallic silvers highlighted by passionate reds, his art displays a mastery of color that cannot be taught. His mediums vary from acrylics to oils and focus on creating depth through layering and application of rich texture. Nic's works fall into three categories: contemporary figure studies, pop art and expressionistic color studies.. "I pull my inspiration from fashion and music and I love working with figures because they are always so challenging - the detail of a hand, the curves of a body and the capturing of natural movement and expression." |
Welcome Aboard!
