Nicky’s radiant artworks capture ‘realism with a touch of romance’ in a colourful, expressive style. Her painting and illustration skill set is diverse, and her love for painting florals and organic subjects is influenced by designing print patterns for interiors and fashion for over 2 decades. Styles range from refined botanical floral studies and graphical illustrations to vibrant, and often large scale, watercolour artworks; the latter being what she is best known for and brings her and the viewer the most joy.
Her studio is based in Buckinghamshire at Westbury Arts Centre, a tranquil hidden gem surrounded by nature in the heart of Milton Keynes. Westbury is home to 'The Artist Collective', formed by 18 multi-disciplinary artists each with their individual and characterful studios; the group collaborate on creative projects to make and exhibit art and support others to do so too through community projects and workshops. Nicky hosts watercolour painting workshops in the lovely sun blushed drawing room at Westbury and regular classes at other beautiful venues and art schools in Buckinghamshire, Northamptonshire & Oxfordshire.
