Nigel is an artist who seeks to represent Northern BC in his art. His work is a collection of various landscape, portraiture and Northwest Coast Designs

The opening for his solo exhibit at the Museum of Northern BC is on the 9th of July at 7pm. This event will be at the Museum of Northern BC in Prince Rupert.

"This exhibit is pretty special for me because it is in the home town of my youth and it is under the same roof as some pretty significant artifacts at the museum, including the original hole-in-the-sky pole. I will be showing much of my landscape paintings as well as my NW coast designs at this exhibit."

The artwork will be showing for the duration of the month of July.

Nigel has been recognized for his work at various shows throughout the northwest.
