David Nielsen was raised in the swamps of Florida where animals had a lasting impression on his art; spirit animals, crocodiles, Bigfoot, bulls, bear, horse, bison, roosters, and rabbits. When at FSU he was introduced to the techniques of meditation. This has also had a lasting impression on his art. He experimented with certain substances that opened consciousness.
