Nate McMullen, Pomona, CA
A native of southern California, I grew up in Huntington Beach and Chino. The ocean life and brightness of Huntington Beach, the warmer sunsets and landscapes of Chino (back when it was more rural!), and the desolate deserts I’ve hiked have greatly influenced my art.

I began painting with pastels when I was eight years old, and painting has been a lifelong passion ever since. My current focus are landscapes (including ocean, desert, and sunsets) and surreal subjects with themes relating to religion, love, and existentialism. I mainly work with oil and acrylic on canvas.
I have always felt minuscule compared to the grandness of nature, and I try to portray this feeling in my work. And just like the ocean, these places in my head bring a sense of calm to the chaos of life. It is my hope that when someone gazes upon one my works that they, too, can be set at ease and enter a state of solace.
