Nick Paciorek - Artist and Painter

As an artist, Nick Paciorek aligns himself with a new generation of Fauvists. He uses broad strokes of brilliant color for their emotional impact. Each of his pieces is a celebration of light and color, a vivid interpretation of his subjects. For him, choosing the exact combination of hues for each painting is foremost.

Large cities with active skylines, busy streets and hard edges are one of Paciorek’s favorite subjects. He’s influenced by the relationship of one building to another and the immediacy of light hitting a building in a certain way. He finds that a particular street may represent the entire mood of a city. A resident of Chicago most of his life, Paciorek’s education brought him to Baltimore and Washington, D.C.

He now maintains a studio in Providence.
