Nicole Cameron

Artist Statement

Whether my wide array of subjects is painted using oil, acrylic, or watercolor one thing that remains consistent is the arrangement of color and form. I love to show the dance between them on any given surface. I have always had a passion for our animal kingdom and plant species, large and small. In paintings of places or species I try to convey the interconnectedness of forms, colors, and patterns seen in the world.
