Nyasia Velazquez is a Puerto Rican abstract artist from Springfield, MA with a love for glitter. She's been a diva for as long as she could breathe and in high school she studied Design and Visual Communication and applied her personality to her art. Typically she will complete one piece in one sitting, to convey and preserve the emotions of that moment but her process has changed recently to allow herself more time to create depth on the page and enjoy coming back to it. 2023 she has fully immersed herself into her art, beginning with getting her work recreated on her nails- art manicures, each finger a small canvas. In August, after months of art manicures, she decided to have an art show on her birthday at The Artist Cafe in Springfield to present to everyone for the first time- Clandestine Collective. Since then she has vended at art events, curated and was on a steering committee for a gallery, displayed her art in said gallery, attended open art studio days, and gained a lot of organic art friends.
