Nick San Pedro was born in Las Vegas, NV on November 15, 1978 to a Cuban-Chinese father, and a Spanish-French mother.

As a young child, San Pedro immersed himself in art, spending most of his time drawing. People quickly grew fond of the young artist's creations. San Pedro was surrounded by all types of music and live stage shows, being raised in Las Vegas. The artist's father was friends with Siegfried and Roy, which led to Nick having many opportunities to share his works with them throughout his adolescence. Roy was especially encouraging, and his acknowledgment of San Pedro's talent was all the artist needed to believe that his artwork was truly magical.

San Pedro's love for music and performance led to the creation of many works of art that would eventually gain attention from musicians coming to perform in the entertainment capitol of the world.

In 2002, while attending college, San Pedro was commissioned to produce artwork for 'NBC's Last Call with Carson Daly'. The following year, The artist was hired to paint eight musicians, including Madonna, for the 45th Annual Grammy Awards Pre-Party.

After debuting his artwork in New York City in the prestigious Rainbow Room, San Pedro went on to share many of his paintings with numerous people in the entertainment industry, including: Christina Aguilera, Nelly Furtado, Tori Amos, Sarah McLachlan, Elton John, Celine Dion, Carole King, Stevie Nicks, Steven Spielberg, Gwen Stefani, Pink, Carey Hart, Siegfried & Roy, Jerry Seinfeld, Ani DiFranco, Ben Folds, The Osbournes, Carson Daly, Ludacris, Kathy Griffin, Carmen Electra and Pamela Anderson.

San Pedro is realizing the impact his work is having on the world around him. The artist continually looks for ways to enlighten peoples lives with his creativity. He is proud to lend his time and work to many non-profit organizations that benefit art programs, children's charities and AIDS programs.

Nick San Pedro is currently producing oil paintings on canvas and looking forward to sharing his body of work abroad. The artist is truly grateful for every experience he's had to share his artwork, and for all the people who share this journey with him.

A lot of your work has that pop-art feel, but this one is especially Warhol-esque.
Keep it up, your paintings are gorgeous!

this is so done in the style of warhol. to call it derivative would be a complement. it is interesting to note that dolly parton did have a portrait done by warhol. but she didn't want to pay for it. she thought it should be a freebie. and i don't think she ever got it. bet she's kicking heself for that one.
