ABOUT THE ARTIST

Oliver Neilson was born in Queens NY, and raised in Quincy MA just outside of Boston. He attended art schools from the age of 5 and later pursued a degree in Graphic Arts at the Fort Lauderdale Art Institute. Currently a resident of Southern Florida, Oliver uses the bright colors in local nature but still maintains that urban feel of Boston and other Northern Cities. He is a frequent visitor and supporter of Graffiti Alley in Cambridge Mass. Graffiti art was frowned upon as vandalism for so long and often carried heavy sentences. With the new views on graffiti as an art form, he now utilizes some of those techniques into his art creating the masterpieces we have today. Oliver Neilson’s art is truly one of a kind. His work can be found in galleries and exhibitions throughout the US.
