if six was nine
Nico van Dongen
Artist Listen to the sound of your genuine self, it is the only guide you have. As a fine art photographer, I visualize without pretense. Disregarding gravity, I hover like a bumblebee, celebrates common objects, revealing the seductive and whimsical. Removed from their environment, my subjects are reduced to their basic form and color, amplifying intended purpose. |

Educator I respect and reward excellence, while helping those who are willing to grow achieve it. I am an artist and an educator – a coach for learning. I believe that creativity plays an essential role in life as it teaches, problem solving skills that venture beyond the classroom into the world at large. Art and Design have real and far reaching importance, and are an instrumental part in preserving our planet and bettering our society. |
