Makin' stuff for you to look at.

Oh, hello there! My name is Nicholas Mestanas, and I'm an artist from Southern California. My goal as an artist is to one day gain such influence over pop culture that I (more or less) rule the civilized world. So if you don't mind, hit that follow button at the top of the page. Every little click brings me a step closer to total domination. Thanks! All work is for sale, or open for critique unless I say otherwise. I crave the criticism!

"Fractured hand," 2013. Tree bark, hot glue, wall mounted. Haven't posted any updates in a while, but only because I've had waaay too many projects going on.
