T.M. Nicholas

Born in Rockport, Massachusetts, T.M. Nicholas grew up admiring the rugged beauty of the northeast coastline of the United States. He quickly grew to appreciate the unique landscapes of coastal New England. His father, esteemed painter, Tom Nicholas, offered advice to help T.M. develop his own individualistic style and become the plein-air painter he is today. Nicholas studied under John Charles Terelak at the Gloucester Academy of Fine Arts. He also studied part-time under Boston area artist George Gabin at Monserrat School of Art, with emphasis on realistic paintings and drawing.

T.M. Nicholas is a member of the Rockport Art Association, the Guild of Boston Artists, Whiskey Painters of America, Hudson Valley Artists, Allied Artists of America, Academic Artists, American Artists Professional League, New England Watercolor Society, and the North Shore Arts Association. His paintings are in many museum, corporate, and private collections throughout the country.
