John Nieto is one of America’s most dynamic contemporary artists concentrating on themes that transcend mere
representation. He utilizes intense primary colors, applied in bold strokes to give dimension and
character to the canvas. In his etchings and drawings, Nieto employs classic linear
techniques to create images of great detail and depth. In all of Nieto’s art, sensitivity and
respect for his subjects are projected. The artist explains, "I still use the figure, but it is not
necessarily the message. The longer you look, the more it reveals of life and our spectrum of feelings."
