T.M. NICHOLAS was born in Rockport, Massachusetts in 1963. Nicholas grew up admiring the rugged beauty of the northeast coastline of the United States as well as the majesty and diversity of the northern New England landscapes. His father, esteemed painter Tom Nicholas, offered advice and encouragement to his son early on. And over the years Nicholas developed his own individualistic style to become the plein-air painter he is today.
Nicholas studied under John Charles Terelak at the Gloucester Academy of Fine Arts, as well as under the Boston area artist George Gabin at
