Nicole's Studio Letter

You know from experience that life moves fast. Faster than you can believe, sometimes. Even so, your home doesn't need to feel rushed. Your home can be a beautiful oasis.

You’ve searched for art that resonates deeply with your values, memories, and the stories you carry with you. But the pieces you find at bulk print shops or the big box stores just aren't cutting it. They're missing something.

You’re tired of the mass-produced pieces that lack the heart and soul you want to surround yourself with. The generic pieces anyone might hang on their walls aren't cutting it. You want your art to express your personality and give glimpses into your journey. You want statement pieces and self-expression and art that's uniquely you.

But it's not just about a piece on your wall. For you, it’s about creating a space that brings peace, sparks joy, and connects you with the memories and values that matter most.

The pieces you add to your home become part of your life. They inspire you with memories of where you've come from or where you're heading. The art you display enriches your home and your rhythms in ways that go far beyond the aesthetic.

The art you collect isn't just a one-time purchase—it becomes a living piece that grows with you. Every day, you bring new perspectives and interpretations to the art. Over time, each piece invites you to slow down, reflect, and find moments of peace. A respite from the frustrations and pressures life. Art adds a personal touch to your space and your everyday routines.

That’s where I come in.

Each week, I invite you into my creative process through a personal letter crafted for those who seek art with depth and heart.

You'll get early access to new watercolors, exclusive behind-the-scenes stories, and personal reflections that reveal the meaning behind each piece. It’s more than just an art email, it’s an opportunity to connect with hand-painted watercolors that reflect your story and transform your space into something truly meaningful.

I have been blending storytelling with art from a young age, all the way back to telling my baby sister bedtime stories, and turning them into coloring pages for her the next day. These days, I use watercolor to evoke peace, nostalgia, and connection.

Since launching my art business in 2018, I have helped countless collectors express themselves and preserve treasured memories through commissioned pieces, originals, and high-quality prints.

My work encourages the viewer to slow down to soak up the beauty and details, explore creativity and whimsy, and reflect on personal stories that surface while looking at the art. I create each piece to connect deeply with its owner, offering not just a piece of art or decor but a meaningful experience.

“My husband commissioned Nicole to paint three different cottages we stayed in during a trip to Scotland. Every time I see her beautiful watercolors hanging on our wall, I’m reminded of the wonderful time we spent at each cottage and the memories we made on that trip!” L.O., Illinois

“It makes me happy knowing we will have this memory for a very long time to come.” C.Y., Minnesota
