BIOG

George Nicholas was born 1955 in Walton Liverpool, England. It was apparent from an early age that George was blessed with artistic and musical gifts, and a very fertile imagination that he used to create unusual and fabulous paintings, drawings and sculptures.

In his turbulent younger years, George found himself fully engaged in sports and concentrated on boxing in particular that proved to be a useful means of fitness and self defence on the tough streets of Liverpool.

George’s career has been varied over the years, from display artist, sign-writer, sculpturist, cartoonist and publisher, inventor, actor, singer songwriter, security boss, American fire-fighter and paramedic, community arts champion, and founder of the Art For Their Sake charity. 

 

George is a Guinness world record holder, for painting the world’s longest mural. He also created the famous children’s toy concept “The Werebears” and published and produced his own successful comics. The cheeky Liverpool Scouse Mouse character was another of George’s creations and he produced the syndicated cartoon strip, fun books and comics.

Despite his very busy and productive life, George has ran and organized the Art For Their Sake charity creating a vast array of large scale, vibrant mural projects in special needs schools, hospices, and hospitals etc throughout the UK for nearly 40 years. He also designs and builds special, unique, interactive, tactile, and fibre-optic illuminated murals within these institutions. He still is to this day engaged fully in this charity work that greatly improves environments for the sick, disabled, disadvantaged, and terminally ill.
