A man's face is his autobiography-
A woman's face is her work of fiction. . .
-Oscar Wilde
-Nathaniel Milljour-
Artist
Known for his chiaroscuro style, his work can often be easily picked out of a line due to its sharp contrasts.
His trademark imagery of pale skinned figures against dark and vibrant red backgrounds has caught the eye of many a collector and publicist.
Appearing in such magazines as the New York / London publication "Eros Zine",
as well as the online women's erotica monthly "Oysters and Chocolate, Nathaniel's work is quickly gaining international recognition.
With his band and poster artwork in high demand for subculturally inclined bands, his artwork not only graces the halls of private collectors, but the dark back alleys of nightclubs, bars, and other places frequented by "the creatures of the night".
