Nick Pedersen received his MFA in Digital Arts from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, NY in 2011. Pedersen’s work combines his own photography, digital collage, and printmaking techniques to create elaborate, photorealistic images focusing on environmental issues. A main theme in his work is “beautiful decay,” creating large-scale pieces that reveal a satirically, post-apocalyptic vision of the not-too-distant future.
Creating art has been Mark Newman's passion ever since he can remember. It grows stronger within him over time. The art he creates manifests itself in many different genres and styles never really settling in just one for very long. From commercial work for hire to his personal fine artwork, the drive to make it his best effort for each project stays consistent. Making Art keeps Mark alive and sane.
