"Working without boundaries and never wishing to be contained by them, I strive to place art in both private and public domain. I want my work to catch a fleeting moment and yet still continue to grow and develop, with an eye towards both the evergreen and the here and now. My emphasis is to cross cultures and divides while communicating to all regardless of economic, religious or ethnic status. Bridging these gaps in society, starting a dialogue and hopefully bringing a greater understanding in more than just the art itself. I would rather hear the voices of strong opinion than none at all." Nicholas A. Price Artist Résumé ABOUT THE ARTIST Nicholas A.
