Cake Nygard

Cake Nygard is an artist and the founder of Caked World. He has lived in the heartland of the vast nowhere of Minnesota almost all his life, far removed from city life and its museums. His focus was never so much on looking at art, but creating it. He’s been drawing from the moment he could.

His passion for making art seemed to indicate a future in art school, but he chose graphic design instead, for job security. After years of corporate brand standards, he felt the strong urge to branch out.
