Ron Nicolaides

Ron Nicolaides, lives in Oregon and studied art at Washington University in St. Louis Missouri, but is primarily a self-taught artist. He painted his first oil seascape in his teens and credits art museums as a basis for his continuing knowledge of art and the Hudson River School style he pursues. Artist Eugene Garin has served as his mentor. However, his work is heavily inspired by the European Old Masters with his greatest stylistic influence being the Hudson River School of artists, such as Albert Bierstadt, Thomas Moran, Frederic Church, and Herman Herzog.

The western landscape and Pacific coast are the predominant subjects of Nicolaides' paintings.

Nicolaides, with years of study and experience, has become a powerful accomplished artist. He has captured majestic landscapes and has mastered the mesmerizing translucent waves in his depiction of the sea without freezing its energetic rhythms.

His strength is his capacity to push the limits of oils and multiply glazes to create masterful works that bring the viewer right into the scene.
