Nicolas Caesar, Temple Terkildsen, and John Hageman on

Creepy Kofy Movie time with Balrok and No Name!

 

I just wanted to share that Scary-Art.com was the best art dealer I have ever worked with and that and that Nicolas Caesar is the best. If you have friends interested in outsider art and fabulous service recommend them to become a fan. xoxo

Caesar’s work has a sideshow madness, with acrylics like “Fluffy,” featuring a portrait of anything but that and creepy cartoon anime you wouldn’t want to meet in a back alley. His evil insect hybrids, like much of the other artists’ work on display, are designed to unbalance while they charm you.

- The Burbank Leader

 

Nicolas is a highly creative, demented little runt, a bastard hybrid of  Peter Lorre and Alvin the Chipmunk. He's also a talented and unusual artist"

If Vincent Price and Tim Burton had a love child, it would be Nicolas Caesar.

Nic Caesar is an unsung artistic genius. I'm joining the growing chorus of fans who want to change that tune.

- Will "the Thrill" Viharo

 

"i thought i knew what art was...i thought i knew what life was for, turns out i knew neither until the veil was lifted and my eyes were open to what was possible. Thanks Nic for grabbing me by the shirt and shaking me awake. Now if you have any idea how i'm supposed to return to the real world without complaint i'm all ears!" 

- Balrok, TV20's Creepy KOFY Movie Time

 

 

"Charles Addams meets Adult Swim"

- Twisted Rib Design

 

easily one of the hardest working artists I know.

Nic Caesar's wonderful art makes me feel like I've touched a teddy bear in the wrong place.

Nik Caesar is the James Brown of quirky art.

- Traci Lynn, Artist

 

Nicolas Caesar is a self-taught artist hailing from Northern CA.  Founder of the Scary Art Collective, his artwork brings forth a whimsical creepy landscape populated by beings both sinister and sardonic.  You will see glimpses of Sideshow madness within his paintings mixed with a healthy dose of 50’s B-Movie charm.  The raw feel

of his work twists the familiar yet remains strikingly original.  Nicolas’ horrific characters, with their permanent, toothy grins, reveal a playful quality to his art that challenges you to keep from smiling along no matter what atrocity they are currently plotting for your future.

- Bill Shafer, Hyaena Gallery, Burbank, CA

 

"The Pee Wee Herman of Horror"

-Dr. Mor B.S.,  Horror Host

 

"When I saw your work, I immediately thought "Outsider Dark Noir," -  like the old 1930s-1950s Dark Noir feeling, that is what your work reminds me of, very intense and timeless!"

- Madame Talbot. 

 

Nicolas Caesar's "Tired Giant," made of wires and a porcelain doll mask, looks like something you might find in an HR Giger painting — something you wouldn't want to run into on a chilly night in a dark alley.

- Laura Casey, Contra Costa Times

I really, REALLY dig your work

- Kevin Seconds of 7 Seconds

 

I think it is very fair to say that Nic Caesar is a friend of mine, even though I have only briefly met him once at a show I invited him to be a part of, because his amazing art simply needed to be there.

Nic rocks, is incredibly kind and lighthearted, and truly is probably one if the easiest person I have ever had the opportunity to work with

"Caeser's modern-Gothic aesthetic contains aspects of both Survival Research Labs and the Muppets. He combines urban detritus like wires, saw blades,  doll parts, and religious artifacts with bones, blood,

and animal parts into tragic and amusing mutant assemblages with names such as Spiderbaby and Angel of Doubt"
