Nik Rafin’s abstract paintings feature organic circular shapes with undulating linear form – creating a wave of non-representational image. This autumnal palette includes the colours brown, orange, red, yellow and a streak of white.
Upon completing high school, Nik Rafin studied Advanced Photography in the USA, before pursuing a Minor in Fine Arts from the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design. He graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Advertising and Mass Communication from Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA where he was a student from 1994 to 1997. His work experience included being an illustrator for a Milwaukee newspaper, The Marquette Tribune before being offered an enviable job — a seven-year contract by Walt Disney as a graphic designer and illustrator – which he turned down due to his father’s insistence that he returns to Malaysia. One of his proud moments is to illustrate a Winnie The Pooh promotional board.
