John Nielsen has been a fixture on the Manitoba art scene for many years.. He was one of the original exhibitors in Manitoba Art Expo. Last year he was delighted to return, after a long absence.

     John has an inquisitive personality and he has experimented with various media, styles, and subject matter. In this year's Art Expo he will show his recent series of work done in oil pastels. He has found its ability to create unique, vibrant images by layering colours to be fascinating.
