RUBY HICKMAN 'UNEXPECTED CONFESSIONS
Nathan was once again approached to collaborate on singer songwriter Ruby Hickman's debut album. The packaging for the album featured a monochrome painting and was wrapped around the entire sleeve. The artwork is widely seen on Apple Music, Spotify and many more platforms and featured in an extensive social media campaign.
JOHN LEWIS COFFEE SHOP
In 2008 Nathan was contacted by 'Contemporary Art Holdings', who were commissioned by John Lewis to find a local artist to exhibit in the new John Lewis Liverpool, coffee shop area. Nathan was lucky enough to be one of a list of artists put forward for this opportunity.
After a number of stages, and then being shortlisted, and then finally becoming the winner of the commission, (and the artist selected by John Lewis), Nathan was commissioned to produce 9 large pieces of art for the new John Lewis store. The works are no longer on display, but were there a number of years and remain the property of John Lewis. Below are a selection of images of the work when it was on display.
PRIVATE CLIENT COMMISSIONS
Nathan has also been approached to produce many commissions for both residential and commercial spaces. Bringing interiors to life with bold colours, large scale canvases with bespoke, engaging pieces.
