Nick, who goes by the stage name Snooze One, began experimenting with graffiti art and lettering at the age of thirteen and has always been fascinated by the creative combination of the two. Back in school, he stamped his own T-shirts with words, sold them, and shared his designs on Instagram. Over time, he focused more and more on the calligraphic aspect and developed his aesthetic towards brush writing. In all of his works, Nick blends calligraphy, lettering, and graffiti, continually experimenting with different styles and tools. Meanwhile, he combines his passion for photography with his graffiti works and records his artistic process for his successful Instagram profile. His lettering appears on pieces for brands like UNATICS , Combo Breaker, and Bad Apple Skateboards. His influences include the Dutch calligraffiti artist Shoe, Nick van Steen (@radical_only), as well as Tyrsa, Felipe Pantone and It's a Living.
