Zave Nelson was born in Atlanta, Georgia.  He never met his mother.  As a child Zave was a problem child, and stayed in trouble.  Zave was introduced to art and in his words “art changed his outlook on life and has brought him closer to God.”  He now looks upon his life and talents as a gift, for which he is very thankful. Zave’s artwork is what he likes to call surreal abstract, Zave says it’s freaky and crazy but in the end everything has a message.

 Zave’s personal statement or mantra is “I am of the father as the father is of me. Therefore; I do the will of him through the expression of my craft.”
