Artist Profile - NOL, by EdgeArt on May 14, 2008 19:03:06 GMT 1, NOL (Michael Nolta)
NOL was born in Amsterdam, and lived there for the first few years of his life until his parents decided to move to a small town in the south of the Netherlands.
One day in the third year of primary school, he and his classmates went on a field trip to the forest, and NOL got lost. He managed to keep himself alive for a few weeks by eating only blue bilberries, until he was found lying on the ground by strange looking characters.
The bilberries he was living on had swelled and bloated his stomach and turned his face purple so the creatures thought he was one of them. They took NOL to their village and treated him like on of their own.
These days NOL still lives in the woods, spending his days by making paintings of his friends to thank them for taking good care of him all those years ago.
