nick elliott rock art photographer officialWHEN NICK CAUGHT UP WITH SLICK..
Posted on June 4, 2024
Well we hadn’t seen each other for nearly 4 years. The last time was just before the Covid situation kicked off big time and the lockdown happened.
But only for a short time, he was back in the UK for the launch of his biography “Guitar Earl Slick ” we managed to spend some time together before and after the show.
Obviously we’ve kept in touch in that period through emails and messaging but there’s nothing like seeing somebody face-to-face. We chatted about the book, and shot a little footage for the VT for a short that we’re going to be doing soon. And the project that we’ve been working on for nearly 6 years.
Coffee table book, a Rockumentary “When Nick Met Slick” a collection of unseen fly in the wall images that Nick and Earl have been working on jointly leading up to the pandemic.
To be released later this year 2024

It was lovely to see my dear friend again. It’s been way too long.

IT’S OFFICIAL! A BRAND NEW COLLECTION TO SHOW IN ROME.
Posted on May 26, 2024
I signed the contract this week!
To make it official, we will be taking a brand new collection of 25 images to show in one of the major galleries in the centre of Rome in the Spring of 2025. It’s a project that my Italian office has been working on for the past 12 months. We now have a final go-ahead. The project will be a collaboration with the lovely team at The Medina Arte Design Gallery in central Rome right next door to the Colosseum.
The show will run for seven days from March 28th to April 3th 2025.
Nick will be there for the private viewing evening and for two or three days in the week of the show. Nick would like to say a massive big thank you and congratulations to his Italian team and especially his Italian PA Raffaella Clementi who has brought this whole project to fruition.
I really don’t know what to say about this! No words can tell you how happy and excited I am about taking a new collection of my work to the art centre of the world. Italy!!
It really is a lifelong dream.

WHAT THEY SAY FROM THE ONES THAT WERE THERE! “THE STORY SO FAR”
Posted on May 24, 2024
“Being invited along to ‘Nick Elliott – The Story So Far’ that hot evening last May was without doubt one of the best nights out we had all year.
The Forum in Norwich proved to be the perfect setting for Nick to tell his fascinating life story being an intimate theatre venue where the invited audience of friends, family and some of the many people who have played a part in Nick’s story so far enjoyed the premiere of Nick’s open, honest and at times very poignant, raw and moving first person documentary film.
Footage and photos accompanied memories and people, places and times gone by in the 90 minute documentary which drew on the audience’s emotions from laughter at the many memories and anecdotes to complete silence during revelations of the darker episodes of Nick’s more recent past.
This extraordinary film was followed by an informal and insightful Q and A session where Nick pulled no punches at answering audience questions in his own unique style which rounded off a fabulous evening in the company of one of the rock world’s most talented and respected rock art photographers; the inimitable Nick Elliott.
The only unanswered questions I had following the night are ‘When’s the next one?’ ‘And can we come along again please?’

WHAT THEY SAY FROM THE ONES THAT WERE THERE! “The Story So Far”

……..The Story So Far
A completely spellbinding evening unravelling Nick’s life story. I felt enormously privileged to be there and see it unravel. Nick’s talents are second to none, and seeing his life laid bare, ( especially the Dark Side ) left me feeling enormously emotional.
Nick’s Artwork will be renowned forever.. as the man himself will be!
Lots of laughter and a few tears… I wait in anticipation for Part Two… I know there’s lots more to come!

WHAT THE PRESS SAY ABOUT “The Story So Far”
Posted on April 26, 2024
Nick Elliott: Grounded
2 February 2024
Nick Elliott is one of the well known rock art photographers in music history. We always hear about the artist and their creativity, but we never know the team behind the curtains. One of them in particular is this chap. In this feature documentary directed and shot by Andy Blithe tells a dark tale about mental illness and how Nick comes to terms with these sinister thoughts, despite that life has punched him in the stomach a number of times. He still gets up and makes something creative and meaningful only to him. I like documentaries like this cause it felt raw and genuine all the way. Very well made film.

BUYING TIME! IT’S IN THE CAN…
Posted on April 9, 2024
Well, after nearly 3 and a bit months working on the feature film ‘Buying Time’, it’s now done!
I was commissioned towards the end of last year to shoot all the behind-the-scenes still images for the film which is due for release sometime mid summer this year. There’s some great news to follow.
The images from the project has turned out to be such a strong collection that after various meetings with a production company ATurn Films, we’ve all decided to produce a fine art coffee table book that will be published through elliottstudios publishing to co inside with the film when it goes on general release in the summer.

Very much to my surprise it turned out I ended up having quite a big part in it, which I didn’t know at the time when we started the project back in November/December 2023.
Here,s just few of the images shot over the last 3/4 months.
So should I receive a telephone call from the Broccoli family, with the possibility of becoming the next James Bond, as I know they are looking I think you’ll find that the stories on here may actually have a bit of a different theme.
lol!!!!
Could be a career move!!
It’s Rock n’ Roll…

A MESSAGE FROM THE ITALIAN OFFICE…
Posted on April 8, 2024
We asked Raffaella how she met Nick and how she became part of his world.
Here’s the answer!
“ I met Nick casually on Twitter in 2015, I didn’t know who he was or what he did in life. Initially it was complicated to communicate, let’s say we both didn’t trust each other.
Slowly and with the passage of time we have broken down the barriers and today I can say that Nick is the friend that each of us would like in our lives, he is faithful, sincere, sensitive and always there.
But it’s not just this!!!
Guys!!! Nick has a gift that few have, he knows how to capture moments of life that only his gaze can capture and he does it through his art, photography!
His shots are not banal images, if they are observed with extreme attention they all have a peculiarities.
When he asked me to become his PA In Italy, I felt honoured and proud, but also terrified.
I said to myself ‘ Guys he works with names that I would never dream of knowing in my entire life!’
I didn’t really know where to start but his words to me were ‘ Raffy , you watch at my work with sensitivity and with a gaze full of attention to even the smallest details and I wouldn’t want anyone else to represent me in your country! You know exactly what I’m doing and what I want to continue doing, the experience will come, but you already have the passion for my art!’
I can say with certainty guys, that I have never regretted, not even just for a second , having accepted!
Nick’s work decorates my home and are the most precious thing I can own, every day looking at them and I discover different details. They are not just photographs, they are intense journeys into other people’s emotions.
So I would like to say to each of you.. ‘ look at the work of this Artist with wide-open and clean eyes, you will discover that you feel emotions that maybe you had forgotten.’
To Nick I want to say this…
‘ I could never have met a more beautiful person inside and out in the world… Thank you for making me part of your team , your world and your life.’”
Your Italian PA
WE STARTED EARLY…
Posted on March 20, 2024
Well!
We had initially decided to start filming the new shows of the new series in early Spring, but this last weekend saw us being able to get the crew back together to shoot the first program of 2Go Mad In Norfolk.
We were invited along to the very first event of its kind, the Hunstanton Gin and Food Festival taking place on Sunday, March 17th. What a great place to start. The weather was totally against us, heavy rain, very grey and chilly at times but we think we managed to get a really exciting and informative show totally recorded.
A lot more to come very soon with a lot more silliness, some great laughs and we meet some lovely people along the way.
Keep watching!!
Check out a few of the shots from the day.
Looking forward to a lot more to come. We’re gonna move the line this time.

Posted on February 21, 2024
That’s right, we’re coming back!!
With a brand new series that starts filming in the Spring and after such a successful run on Amazon Prime, the production company approached me and my cohost, Andy Blithe to see if we would be interested in making some more programmes.
And guess what we said? It was a big yes, and we’re looking forward very much to filming these throughout this year 2024. So make sure you keep watching all the social media and obviously this press site for more news coming real soon.
This time we’re gonna try and be even more ambitious than we were in the past three shows, it’s gonna be a great gig!!!
