Nick Pike

Working from my studio in Stroud, I have developed a style that I refer to as ‘Ghost Impressionism’, primarily achieved by applying oil with sponges, where the location becomes more recognisable than the people within. Translucent figures float through the paintings, reflecting our brief presence on Earth. 

My work is inspired by the love of nature and interest in the human condition. I am fascinated by the way that people interact with their surroundings - my paintings often exploring these themes in a subtle and poetic way. 

'Square Panoramas' - My current style of painting translates panoramic scenes into square images, thus creating a new visual language and enabling the viewer to experience fresh perspectives of known locations. The artwork inspired by my European travels at present are – Paris, Nice, Eze, Florence, Pisa, Budapest, Amsterdam, Rome, Barcelona, London, Cheltenham & Bristol.
