Bio
Nikki Barron
Nicholas is an amazing artist. He has a strong studio art background that makes him an even stronger graphic artist... but calling him a graphic artist doesn't nearly cover his abilities. I saw him paint signs, design stores, create sculptures, design neon and so much more. I've never known someone with such a creative spirit. Nicholas never did anything but his best work while I was at Will Leather Goods. His work was impeccable and always on time. I saw him work until 3 am to complete projects because he refused to put out subpar work. That kind of dedication is so hard to find. It was an honor to work with him at Will Leather Goods. I hope to work with him again in the future.
