Nicky Stockley
For Nicky, drawing is a method of problem solving as well as generating concepts and ideas, it gives her a freedom to work fluently and originally. Drawing underpins every illustrative project she undertakes. With a BA in Fine Art and an MA in illustration, her practice has a balance between traditional and digital mediums and styles making her versatile in today's competitive industry whilst maintaining her artistic voice.
Her gouache paintings are large and vibrant. Her love of nature, particularly wildlife and marine life, play an important part in her images of Purbeck and the wider Dorset area.
Textile work currently in the gallery includes hand designed cushions and small items such as toiletry bags, scrunchies and keyrings. She colours the designs in digitally before getting them professionally produced at high quality. She then hand sews each individual item. This means you can own a little piece of her artwork for less than £5.
