Artist Bio:
Nicole M Fisher is an abstract painter who lives and works in Virginia. Art has always been in her blood. From an early age she showed an interest in art and in particular painting. Her father built her first easel as a teenager. Growing up in Pennsylvania, she spent much of her time attending art classes, learning the history, theory, and techniques of painting at Germantown Friends School, Moore College of Art, Drexel University, and Chestnut Hill College.
Nicole’s palettes are inspired by life. The colors of nature… the ocean, birds, flowers and plants are huge influences on her color choices. Other color influences include an elegantly designed room, the colors of our emotions, and the music that commits memories into our minds and sparks our hearts to feel. Often a photograph or a song will spark her mood. Or she’ll see a color palette in nature that she just can’t resist! Nicole’s paintings are very intuitive. She doesn’t plan her end composition ahead of time. Nicole allows the paintings to unfold as they see fit. Shapes and texture help to create the composition of her paintings. Nicole has always been intrigued by geometry. This is reflected in her use of bold lines and shapes in many of her paintings. Nicole’s paintings are layered gems. Using palette knives, brushes in varied sizes, scrapers, and many other found objects she adds texture and depth to the layers of her paintings. Fluid acrylic paint and acrylic inks are often used to add a bit of softness and playfulness to balance out the bold geometric shapes that are prevalent in her pieces.
