Nigel
Sade - Artist
Nigel
Sade was born on the bright, sunny morn of June 6th, 1974. He was raised
in Portage county pretty much all of it, too. Nigel's family has always
had a strong nautical tradition, with many companies named Jolly Roger
this and Jolly Roger that (Pirates in his blood). As a teenager Nigel
was a rebellious youth, a Technicolor haired street freak. Alas, this
was shattered one peaceful day when a lapse in judgment led to marriage!
However, this torment was not without reward. He now has 2 lovely children
with which to explore life.
Shortly
after his divorce Nigel graduated college with a degree in Philosophy.
Armed with his freedom, his offspring, and an amazing ability to argue
points that even he may not believe, he set out on the high seas of
art! His art in form is either Realism or Symbolic Abstracts, and in
function it questions basic ideas we hold dear as a people. It is his
belief that art should spur conversation, not just match ones curtains.
Now you may ask, "What does all this have to do with piracy?"
Well, he was always a grungy, bandana wearin freak, but with his families'
nautical background and the new Pirate craze, the public proclaimed
him a pirate, and a pirate he was. Yet, having always loved pirates,
one can say Nigel got peanut butter in his chocolate!
