Abstract
Pertains to a collection of paintings and poetry from artist and creator, Jim Nicoll. Much of Nicoll’s art is characterized by his attention to minute details, which is largely a result of his training as a Civil Engineer. Both an artist and poet, Nicoll has an extensive collection of works, many of which have gone unnoticed. The publication sought to bring Nicoll’s work to the surface, and hopefully attract attention to his great talents.
