Trepidation

Trepidation is a collection inspired by Nikki’s recent trip to Newfoundland. Her work is created in both acrylic and oil, brought to life with heavy textural strokes that draw you into the canvas as they leap from it.
Nikki’s fear of the ocean, with its unpredictability and intrinsic force drives the depth of drama behind each piece. As a child the memories of being drawn out under a current gasping for breath keep her feet firmly rooted on the shore. After 30 years of shooting her subject Nikki has found her passion in reimagining this landscape.
This collection comprises of 12 pieces ranging in size from 20x30 to 48x72 inches.
