Hi, I'm Dave Nielsen. A visual storyteller, drawing on the world both known and imagined.

I will always be learning; searching for new ways to challenge myself and participate in creative work. I hope to help others tell their own stories. And to offer what I can to the world through art. Thanks for visiting!
