About artist:Nicholas Heilig grew up in the rural, yet artistic, community of Castleton, Vermont. His thirst for knowledge and outdoor lifestyle led him to UVM in 2002, where he immersed himself in academic discourse and honed his graphic design skills. After graduating with a B.A. in Studio Art, Nicholas relocated to Lake Bomoseen in southern Vermont. There, he continued to study the works of Dürer, Escher, Hiroshige, and Hokusai, while producing many small-scale works of art, as well as a mural for the local state park. Nicholas has since returned to Burlington and has been busy exhibiting his work at various local galleries. Nicholas currently works at Mt. Philo State Park, teaches private art lessons, and volunteers for several non-profit organizations, including SEABA, the Vermont Workers’ Center, and WRUV 90.1 FM, Burlington.
About art:Repetition of pattern appears time and time again as the central theme to much of my work. Logarithmic spirals and spiraling waves recur so often in nature that I find it all but impossible to exclude them from my artistic endeavors. These forms, combined with my great admiration for woodblock motifs and clean lines have driven my exploration of two-tone images. My primary goal is creating appeasing compositions rooted in both nature and graphic design.
