Born in 1955, Robert Lyn Nelson’s artistic skills developed early and his work is now sold at Robert Lyn Nelson art auctions. This world-renowned artist and environmentalist created incredible drawings by the age of three. This child prodigy had his first exhibition at age fifteen and sold every composition he displayed. Local colleges offered him the opportunity to take classes with them while he was still finishing his high school education. Nelson gets inspiration for his work from the world around him. One of his most famous paintings is called Two Worlds, which became the start of a new genre of art merging life above and below the ocean surface.
