Biography

Nicole has been painting for at least 30 years. In those early years, she never created a painting or drawing worthy of the world's eyes. Fast forward 30 years, she has opened her studio to the world. The original artworks available today, are the culmination of her years of practice. Nicole has a thriving garden. It is from this garden that she sources the flowers for many of her paintings. Nicole uses professional oil paint and surfaces to create her original artwork.
In addition to painting and drawing, Nicole added embroidery and sewing to her creative skill set. She creates one-of-a-kind pretty, hand embroidered cotton and linen tote bags, wallets, handbags and wristlets. She upcycles quality, gently used cotton and linen fabric to create these items, giving each piece a longer, useful, sustainable life.
Nicole's work has been exhibited throughout New England and the Tampa Bay area. She received her MFA degree from the Academy of Art University and bachelor's degree from Saint Anselm College.
