“Stealing moments to paint when inspiration strikes is when I feel the most authentic in my artistic expression”
Creating intimate vignettes in my home and studio—groupings of aged books, handcrafted pottery, and rustic wooden bowls juxtaposed with bold, inky lines on textured paper—fills my space with inspiration and tactile warmth.
I believe that our surroundings profoundly influence our energy and creativity. The art we choose, the colors that speak to us, and the objects we cherish all contribute to a personal environment that nurtures our spirit. In today’s technology-driven world, intentionally curating our spaces with art and beauty becomes essential. It’s about designing a life that reflects who we are and living artfully every day.
Hi, I’m Nicki—an artist, author, and traveler at heart. I create art inspired by quiet moments, European charm, vintage treasures, and the beauty of slow, intentional living.
Each piece I paint is made to bring warmth, soul, and a touch of romance into your home—whether it’s a petite original for a cozy nook or a statement piece that becomes the heart of a room.
If you’re looking to refresh your space, create a calming corner, or simply bring more beauty into your every day, you’re in the right place.

Nicki has been featured in publications such as Where Women Create and In Her Studio Magazines, Uppercase Compendium and is the author of the top selling book Watercolor Made Simple and popular online classes of the same name.
I am passionate about making original art accessible—pieces that are unique, tell a story, and add personality to your home, all while accommodating various budgets.
My goal is to inspire art lovers to become collectors who take pride in supporting independent artists. Owning art that resonates with you and enhances your personal space is deeply gratifying and feeds the soul. I hope my creations bring you as much joy as they bring me during the creative process.
My artistic explorations span a variety of mediums and subjects, from serene landscapes to vintage botanicals and charcoal-sketched portraits.
My love for naturalist decor, European travels, and the stories held within vintage books continually inform the marks I create and the colors I choose. Each piece is an attempt to capture a moment, an emotion, and to create a new memory.
Stealing moments to paint when inspiration strikes is when I feel the most authentic in my artistic expression
Over the years, I’ve often heard that an artist should have a recognizable style—a singular theme that unites their work. I’ve always struggled with this notion, as my artistic journey is as varied as my moods and interests. I find beauty in both simple minimalism with soft color palettes and moody scenes rich with texture and intricate marks. Nature’s gentle watercolors captivate me, as do the stories held within well-loved vintage books and timeless European landscapes.
