Nicholas "Nic" Hankins has been teaching his unique
oil painting methods since receiving his first
credentials with the Alexander Art Corporation based
in Salem, Oregon in October 1998.
Nic has enjoyed a life-long passion for art, inspired
by the talents of his Father, Jerry, and encouraged by
both his parents since the "crayon days". Certain that
art would forever be a very important part of his life,
Nic enrolled at the University of Tennessee in
Knoxville in the autumn of 2000 to further his art
education, and earned his B.F.A. in Studio Art in the
spring of 2005.
Nic's work remains rooted in realism with elements of
graphic design. His work is heavily influenced by
some wonderful teachers, such as Buck Paulson and
Robert Warren, with whom he has studied, and artist
friends who have influenced his work in myriad ways.
As a painter, Nic has taught oil painting to many
enthusiastic students in East Tennessee, and has
demonstrated and taught at the Alexander Art
Corporation's "Silver Falls Seminar" in Silverton,
Oregon. He has participated in several solo and
group exhibitions of his work. Some of his work may
be viewed in the online "gallery" page of this website.
