Nick San Pedro

Nick San Pedro is a Las Vegas-based artist known for his vibrant, musically inspired figurative paintings. His signature style—marked by bold complementary colors and emotionally expressive faces—has led him to share his artwork with icons like Elton John, Celine Dion, Steven Spielberg, and many others.

He first gained national recognition after being commissioned to create eight original works for the 45th Annual Grammy Awards, which debuted during his solo benefit show at the iconic Rainbow Room in New York City.

San Pedro’s art celebrates the beauty of humanity, often blending pop culture with themes of emotion, identity, and healing. Grateful for his gift, he frequently supports causes benefiting youth, education, and emotional healing through his creative practice.

Outside the studio, he enjoys yoga, travel, and spending time with loved ones. He lives and creates alongside partner Derrick Barry—renowned drag artist from RuPaul’s Drag Race—and model Mackenzie Claude Robert, with whom he appeared in RuPaul’s Drag Race: Vegas Revue.

Studied Painting at UNLV from 1997-2003 in pursuit of a BFA.
