John Nieto- Indian Art Modern

John Nieto has been deemed by many art historians as a "Brillian Colorist", and attribute of his paintings that communicates so effectively to the global audience of his paintings, both young and old. More importantly though, it is the manner in which Nieto's subjects are painted, solitary figures that are determined, proud and imbued with a sense of monumentality that the viewer hopes to be a part of and relates to. The fortitude of individual character backed by the plane of the American West and then emblazoned in high drama color defines the Olympic Spirit.
