Hi. I’m Nicola.

I’m originally from the UK and now make art in my studio in Wellington, New Zealand. I aim to make joyful art inspired by my love of mark-making and intense colour.

My art is an extension of my previous career as a successful print designer. I used to sell my textile designs to globally recognised brands including Marc Jacobs, Disney and Calvin Klein.

I’ve developed my approach through many years of practice. I layer various media to build depth, texture and tactility. A single artwork can consist of up to 60 layers of print and paint. Each is a one-off and impossible to replicate.

They are truly original pieces of art.

You can find my work in selected galleries in New Zealand and the Museum Hotel, Wellington. All my work is for sale, so if you see something you like, please get in touch.
