I am an artist, musician and collector of odd bits and pieces.
Nick "The Hat" Gucker is an avid fan of horror in its various and sundry
forms with a distinct interest in the weird and Lovecraftian elements
of the genre. He has been involved with comics, story boarding, painting
and illustrating with a focus on these peculiar and particular
interests since graduating from The Art Institute of Seattle. Nick is a
collector of Masonic and Shriner odds and ends and various bits and
pieces of things that have passed this mortal coil. He also has a
strange fascination with Godzilla and his foes, both reptilian and alien
in origin. On a smaller scale, he is also an entomophile who does not
discriminate between those of the six and eight legged variety.
In 2010 Nick became one of the many tentacled appendages of Strange
Aeons magazine, working as the sole staff artist. Recent collaborations
include illustrations for a comic and a short story with Los
Angeles-based writer and raconteur Cody Goodfellow, artwork for a story
by Sci-Fi mythos writer David Conyers for Perilous Press. Book covers for Blysster Press authors. And various
commission pieces.
