Description  Nelson's VICTORY is a print of one of my Original  Pen & India ink drawings. I am in the process of illustrating several Charts in the 8x10 format or bigger. Most of the Charts are from the  British Admiralty Catalog, this one is from the NOAA  catalog.

Her main mast is 62.5 meters high from the WL and she is armed with 102 guns.This print is a convenient 8" x 10" in size to be easily framed.  It is jet ink printed and  signed and dated.

After a few years of teaching Art History and Design at Junior and High School levels, Nonnis dedicated his time to music. After moving to Los Angeles from Italy, he put together a Big Band whose recordings were and are very well received by Critics and Audiences. (“Step on the gas” and “Just in time,” USA Records)  Nonnis’ career as musician includes playing Drums for the Dick Shearer- Stan Kenton Orchestra and leading the Buddy Rich Big Band from 1988 to 1989. In 1994 Nonnis started a long relationship with the Cruising Industry. It is during this time working at sea as Music Director that he returned to his roots and started to paint and draw during his spare time experimenting with techniques such as Scrimshaw and North American Native Art subjects.  Nonnis lives now in BC Canada with his wife and works as a full time Artist.   Place a Bid!
