On the Canvas
Art that reflects life, place, and whatever feels right in the moment.
Takapuna Energy
Bold colours capturing the rhythm of summer by the sea.
Wanaka Light
Vivid colours shaped by southern light and crisp winter days.
People & Place
Nikki’s paintings are shaped by the places she calls home — Takapuna’s coastal rhythm and Wanaka’s southern light. Each canvas captures not only landscape, but also an abstract sense of people and moments within it — an ever-evolving mix of colour, energy, and texture that reflects her joy in painting.
The Journey
From North to South
Nikki’s acrylic paintings are inspired by the contrasts of two landscapes she knows deeply — the bold, lively rhythm of Takapuna and the quiet luminosity of Wanaka. Each work is a dialogue between place, people, and memory.
Artistic Roots
Her journey as an artist is self-taught and continues to evolve, shaped by joy, energy, and the people who inspire her. Working largely without a paintbrush, what began as an exploration of colour and form has grown into an ongoing practice that invites others to find their own stories within her paintings.
