NATE IS A VISIONARY. Nate wants to inspire kids of any age to paint giant murals. He wants to include the disabled and the acrophobic. There are blank walls everywhere and we must cover them with images that help people escape to someplace wonderful and make people smile. Nate is a self-taught artist, trained in landscape architecture.

Resembling a miniature city, scraps of Belgian block and brick are revealed at low tide. As the tide rises viewers can imagine the effects of sea level change to Boston. Zen under the Zakim. Ripples are raked with a custom sled into the crushed stone under Zakim Bridge. A painted stump on Commonwealth Ave Mall. A gap is filled on Congress street between Children's museum and Fire museum.

Nate started his passion for street art doing photo murals. He teamed up with Boston Building Wraps to print his photography as big as he needed. Photo murals are not cheap. Nate has five photo murals around the North End Boston and one in Cambridge. Nate enjoys doing these projects because the results far outweigh the work involved. The only drawback is they fade much faster than a painted mural. Sun exposure is a consideration when choosing a wall or surface.

PEN AND INK DRAWINGS. Nate, a skilled design drafter, draws using standard pens of three varying sizes on watercolor paper. A drafter's attention to detail helps him realize beautifully rendered street scenes taken from his photos of Boston. These scenes are indeed charming, but include all the warts of contemporary municipal ephemera: street lights, signage, pavement repairs.
