"I love the push and pull of oil paints and the process of an image evolving on the canvas".

Nicole Rose's oil paintings explore the emotional response to the natural world around her. She paints abstract and ethereal landscapes in the space between reality and daydream.

The artist primarily creates these abstract images based on the landscapes around her.  She records sights, sounds and colours before returning to the studio to record her visual memories.  Painting in oils, Nicole layers and blends various shapes of colours, to recreate this emotional response to the starting image of a place she has been.  The finished oil paintings take on a truly ethereal quality.

Nicole graduated from Central St Martins School of Art in 1992 with a BA in Graphic Design.  She has had a successful career as a creative director, running her own commercial design studio for many years, and now works from her art studio in North London.  Nicole regularly exhibits at London art fairs, and her paintings can be found in private collections worldwide.  She was shortlisted for the Boodle Hatfield Print Prize in 2022, for her work ‘Coalescence’.
