Welcome to my new blog!

Hi everyone! Thank you for following me. This blog is for those people, like myself, who love all things art, travel and tiles!!! Ceramics, patterns, architecture, murals, street art, home decor.....the list goes on! I'm going to be writing about how my own artwork has been inspired by what I have discovered abroad, and at home, in beautiful places such as Andalucia and Morocco.

A little bit about myself...I'm Nicola, known to friends as Nico, and I am an artist and art teacher, currently living in Cardiff, South Wales. From a young age, and due to a transient lifestyle, I was really lucky to live in and visit places such as Hong Kong, Thailand, USA and Europe, which developed my love for art and architecture and encouraged my passion for travel.

Over the course of this blog, I will introduce you to places and artwork which have directly influenced my own art, focusing on individual places and the resulting art I have produced, and which you will be able to see on the named pages of this website. This has subsequently influenced my own students, widening their understanding of arts and culture around the world.

This is an exciting new venture for me and I look forward to the future it will bring me.

See you soon!!!!!!
