Nicholas Yust - United States

Art Brokerage: Park West Artist Nicholas Yurst American Artist: Yust was born in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1978. He first explored his passion for art after completing high school, enrolling in fine art and art history courses at the University of Cincinnati's School of Design, Art, Architecture, and Planning. For two years, he focused on abstract oil pastels and interior architecture, after which he transferred to Wright State University to study engineering and pursue his technical interests. During his time there, he interned and worked for the United States Air Force at Wright Patterson AFB, researching superconductivity and thin film-coated conductors, and graduated with a B.S. in materials engineering and an M.S. in metallurgical engineering. After developing his first few wall sculptures from aluminum panels, he began to design free-standing sculptures and developed over a dozen unique grind patterns which have become signature characteristics of his work. To add color to his creations, he experimented with transparent coating to allow his unique grind patterns to be seen through a spectrum of colors. This evolved into the invention of an atomized acrylic painting process for metal, and he remains the only metal artist in the industry with this capability. In addition to exhibiting his works in galleries, Yust has collectors of his works throughout the world. He has been commissioned to create monumental designs for major corporations such as NBC, Starbucks, P&G, CrossFit, Siemens, RE/MAX, and Ford and government agencies like the Department of Defense, the Department of Energy, and NASA.
