Nybor



This is not a man I have met, but his artwork hangs in my home, with pride. His partner and his wife is Elspeth who we featured previously. Nybor's  artwork comes alive and is just beautiful and mysterious.


I have “Storyteller” in which our beautiful Elspeth is the model. If you are not familiar with his art, here is a link to his webpage of art works.

It seems Nybor has been creating masterpieces for the past 50 plus years. He received his art training at the Minneapolis School of Art. After a stint in the U.S. Navy (1958-62) he worked in art studios in Minneapolis and New York as a commercial artist. As James Odbert (his other persona) he became well known for his science fiction art.

Through the years, Nybor's work has won many awards, including "Artist of the Year" by the WPPA several years running. His painting "Kiss of Ages" was Judges Choice at the Millenium Philcon World Science Fiction Convention in Philadelphia in September 2001. His works may be found in publications, art shows, galleries, festivals and many homes.

Nybor also created a Tarot Deck. In 1985, Nybor not only began the drawing of the Tarot Deck (after some 15 years of research); he also developed his own unique style and techniques for other art. The art in the deck is his older, more graphic style. The tarot deck was published in 2001.

He is an incredible artist, teacher, spiritualist and respected elder.

Vist his Site to learn more.

Do you own any of his works? Are you lucky enought to have his Tarot deck?
