About Nicola
Living in North Cornwall on the edge of Bodmin moor and near to the coast, I am surrounded by beauty and nature. My studio and home gallery was once a Duchy Farmhouse and its believed King Charles stayed here!
With views to Dartmoor over rolling fields, the home of animals fur and feather , small and large giving me a wealth of inspiration. Pheasants are my daily visitors, highland cows, dairy cows and sheep live in the surrounding fields.
I love to create interesting paintings with movement and vibrancy using a mixture of inks, acrylics, sprays and watercolour, letting the paint work to create beautiful natural marks and patterns. Most of all I have fun and every day is joyful painting day!
As a successful international textile designer, I designed and drew all by hand for many years.
Technology evolved with photoshop , it was at that point i decided , although my love for design and pattern was still strong I was fuelled by the desire to paint and draw. I still love design and love to visit the V and A in London.
Painting and creating by hand the most important thing to me. I create animal art in my own style using my knowledge of many different painting techniques and styles.
I believe living where I live in Cornwall has been instrumental in the animal paintings I love to create.
I hope you like my work and maybe I can inspire you to pick up a paintbrush and enjoy the creativity of producing artwork.
