ARTIST BIO

Nic Kirkman is an emerging artist and teacher. Originally from UK, she's now based on the Mornington Peninsula and Melbourne's Eastern Suburbs.  She's originally self-taught, but since coming to Australia has been learning from many wonderful Australian artists through local Artist Societies. Her work is loose and energetic, with an unusually juicy palette of mostly transparent colours. Her work is often quirky and fills people with joy and delight. With teaching an open studio style session each week at Peninsula Arts Society (in particular) she's remained versitile (regarding subject matters and mediums) in order to be able to guide her students in their own artistic pursuits. While primarily a portrait artist, she also enjoys doing trees, flowers, cartoon cats, life drawing, still life, land and sea scapes, and spiritual/metaphorical paintings.
