Irving Nurick studied at the National Academy of Design in New York City and further developed his style throughout Europe through painting cityscapes of Paris, London, and Rome. His engaging style, specializing in teens and young adults, found him success in advertising with companies such as Kotex, Wesson Oil, and Ivory Soap, as well as contributions to popular magazines such as The Saturday Evening Post, The Ladies Home Journal, and The Pictorial Review.
