About Us - Let it Drip art studios

ABOUT US

Based outside of Philadelphia, PA, Let It Drip Studios is home to a new style of abstract expressionism.

The name Let it Drip is a nod to Jackson Pollack's revolutionary technique of dripping the paint on the canvas. Skally takes this approach a few steps further by adding different consistencies of acrylic medium and water onto the canvas.

This layering technique incorporates water, clear medium, paint, and ink, using a palette knife to enhance and affect lines, forms, and texture. Each painting is developed layer by layer, over several weeks and develops “organically” as the medium and water flow across the canvas.

Gaining some momentum in the local Philly and central New Jersey painting scenes, Skally is quickly developing a fan base for his unique style.

Customer testimonials

"The plethora of textures he assembles attracts the eye, and the combination of colors sooth the mind," commented James McManaman, Owner of Absolute Abstract Gallery in Philadelphia. "Nicholas' work has been a hit in our Gallery on 13th Street."

"For 30-year-old acrylic painter Nicholas Skally, art isn't about recreating an image that already exists. It's about adding layer upon layer of colors to create something unique and new.
His canvases are covered with thick slabs of paint, overlapping and dripping into swirls and bursts of blue, red, pink, gold and green, emulating abstract designs that can look like a flower, the sea or nothing but a carefully sculpted barrage of color."
