After working as a book illustrator, he moved to California where he taught painting at Riverside College and led watercolor workshops all over the world including in Japan, Europe and Hawaii. The recipient of numerous prizes, medals and juried awards, Nye exhibited widely and with success including at the Society of Western Artists and the American Watercolor Society of which he was a lifetime member. less
