George Lawrence Nelson started his long art career by working diligently, studying first in NYC and then Paris. When Nelson returned to the United States, he became an active exhibitor and excelled as a painter of portraits, and also did and still lifes, excelling at floral pieces. He was noted for his use of color and did not use the somber pallets of his previous instructors. There is no doubt that the Impressionists influenced his colors, but he still retained the dependency on outlined forms, a method learned at the Academy Julian. After much experimentation Nelson was successful at combining the two elements of line and color that would result in forming a creative personal style.
