About me:
The best may to see my work is to CLICK HERE This is a link to my new site, www.OlasArt.com.
Olas Art is art done by myself, and despite sounding exotic, I got 'olas' from my name Nickolas. I am based in Leeds, but with the fruit of technology am glad to present some visual creations and thoughts 24/7 internationally, thanks for passing through.

Starting in a wood near Shrewsbury 2003, Treedub grew into dubclub, and some of my paintings have since been delighted to skank alongside some big dub reggae sounds like, ChannelOne, Jah Shaka, AbaShanti, JahTubbys, IrationSteppas and more...
