Swan by Marlon “Nico” Woods Back In Stock!

21 June, 2008 (11:05) | Black Art News, Marlon "Nico" Woods, Site Updates | By: Haasim

Marlon Woods, better known by the name of “Nico”, is a Florida born artist who now resides in Atlanta, Georgia. Nico is known for his paintings which consist of mainly Afro-centric elongated images and bright, bold colors. Once of his most famous works is titled “Swan”. This print, “Swan” by Nico, will be discontinued very, very soon by the publisher and will no longer be available to the public at that point. The Black Art Depot, however, currently has a limited amount (20 prints) in inventory. “Swan” by Nico is becoming harder and harder to locate and purchase. Therefore if you are interested in this print, or have been trying to purchase a copy of this print, now would be a good time to seize the moment and purchase this celebrated Nico art print before it is too late.
