About Nancy Nicol

        

This photo was taken of me standing next to  my entry "Truth Mapping" in a juried exhibition, Provincetown Art Association and Museum (PAAM) and Provincetown Monument Museum  (PMPM) in 2022. The theme, Truth. 

My Background

I attended Friends Seminary, a Quaker School in NYC for eleven years, where art and shop were integral parts of the curriculum. I always wanted to be an artist and had oil painting lessons as a teenager with Ward Mount who I still consider to be a source of inspiration for my use of color. Summers spent on Cape Cod gave me a vast opportunity to participate in its creative milieu, enrolling in classes at the Creative Arts Center in Chatham, Truro Center for the Arts at Castle Hill, the Provincetown Art Association and at Art New England at Bennington College. 

Current Involvement

As a single parent I learned to successfully balance a professional life with my calling in fine arts and I recently retired from private practice as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist.  My domicile home/studio is in Wellfleet and I have a second studio in Dresden, Maine. Both settings are visually beautiful, one on the Atlantic seacoast, the other on the Eastern River. 

 I am a member of Provincetown Art Association and Museum, the Kennebec Valley Art Association and the Maine Art Gallery in Wiscasset. I am an Affiliate Member at Viridian Art Gallery,  548 W. 28th Street, New York, NY, artist owned and professionally operated in the prestigious Chelsea region of Manhattan. 
nancynicolart.com is a virtual gallery for collectors familiar with my work and designed for those who enjoy the ease of an online purchase. There are several Collections including Historic Wellfleet, Just OystersSmall Works, and Waterscapes.

 

In 2022 I launched NN Boutique, a collection of coastal home goods for bath, kitchen, lifestyle, and décor, featuring original oyster shell and crow designs based on my art.
