Hi, I’m Nikki

Advertising pays the bills.
Making things has always been the constant.

Growing up, that looked like sketchbooks, ceramics, photography, and teaching art classes before I was old enough to have a real job. These days it's just as likely to be a painting, a brand identity, a travel journal, or a film camera tucked into my backpack.

I'm endlessly curious about how people experience the world. Why certain places feel like home. Why a hotel lobby can change your mood. Why some books never leave the coffee table. Why a handwritten menu feels different than a printed one.

That's probably why my work doesn't fit neatly into one category.

Some ideas become campaigns.

Some become paintings.

Some become photographs.

Some are still sitting in a notebook waiting for the right moment.

This is where they end up.
