Meet Nicole

I am a mixed media artist and photographer living in the Austin, Texas, area. After returning to school and finishing my degree in 2017 at Iowa State University, I created this website and began my YouTube channel. Creating has always been a part of me, and now I am excited to begin this new adventure sharing my art to the world. Check the about me tab to see my resume and portfolio. I'd love to connect with you! Drop me a comment on one of my blog posts or check out what I'm up to as I share glimpses from my studio and projects on Instagram.

The other half of the photo from my previous tag/reel was sitting on my desk just begging me to make another tag with it! This is the left side I cut off!

Lots of little @a.houseofbooks & project leftover paper bits from my leftovers bin + washi from @lauramixedmedia that was perfect for the plant drawing the girl in the photo could spray with her hose 🤣

2022 was my first ever advent calendar - which just happened to be inkvent! Every day I opened a door, swatched the ink and made marks. Here’s a wrap-up of the mark-making sheets I created!

All supplies are linked (in bio) in my amazon store & book pages from @a.houseofbooks (link in bio for discount!)

Check my reels for each day’s door opening!

As you saw recently, I love creating on old book & ledger pages! I use them for palettes, to make collage papers, and as backgrounds in my artwork. One place I get them from is @a.houseofbooks

Hop over to my YouTube channel to watch the tutorial, and grab the link in the description box to the blog post where I share about my process creating on these book pages from @a.houseofbooks.

Grungy pages with stamping, stenciling, watery-lay

Grungy pages with stamping, stenciling, watery-layers, flippy tip-ins, poetry, story telling, old handwriting, ephemera, typefaces & fonts, acrylic spray paint, matte paint, water-soluble pencils, and lots of layers.... just a few of my favorite art journaling elements. AND...they are all part of this lesson now on my YouTube channel (link in bio!) Find out why I'm grateful for butterflies, and hopefully you'll be inspired to create your own grungy pages.

If you are inspired to create from my lesson, tag me here on instagram! I'd love to see what you created!

We did a thing today…. And now I can’t wait to clean up my gardens and patio! (Excuse the post-freeze mess!) Hurry up spring! Part of my inspiration as an artist and self care come from my backyard. Next up, adding more patio space and a table for plein air arting!

That's a wrap! I can't believe our 2022 #mixedmedi

That's a wrap! I can't believe our 2022 #mixedmediamenagerie challenge has come to a close. Each month's #strangecollectionofthings inspired and challenged me to create. I definitely have some *very* favorite pages and a couple that are just, well, meh. But it was so fun flipping through to remember each month! Hop over to my YouTube channel to see the flip through (link in bio)

Click the hashtag #MMM2022 & #MMM2022flip to see everyone's flips and posts!

Our second year of this challenge brought a guest artist each month and many of YOU also participating!

Thank you to: @LauraMixedMedia & @ErinDeCoste for jumping into this crazy idea to collab together in 2020, our 11 amazing guest artists, the sponsors we've had along the journey, and YOU!

It was a fun ride, but most of all, we are thrilled that we’ve inspired YOU to create over the past year! (plus!). Post your flip throughs from this year on YouTube or still photos in a recap post here on instagram, and tag them with: #MMM2022, #mixedmediamenagerie or #mmm2022flip. Let's celebrate our creativity together!

We haven't made any final decisions on where MMM will go from here.

Happy New Year's Eve, art friends! I cannot believ

Happy New Year's Eve, art friends! I cannot believe it's the end of 2022 already. Seriously. As I think back on the year, and all the art that was (or wasn't!) created, my favorite part was inspiring YOU. Thank you for making this top nine happen! Your likes, comments, sharing, DMs, following, support, and friendship mean so much to me.

I met a HUGE goal of mine in 2022 - to monetize on YouTube, and that is thanks to YOU. Thank you for all the minutes you contributed to my watch time for that to happen.

I've been little absent lately, and that will continue for a bit. Big goals and plans are ahead for 2023, and I'll be sharing them in a couple upcoming newsletters this month. If you aren't subscribed, check out the link in my bio so you don't miss it. My goal is to send out a newsletter once a month - but in all honesty, it's been over a year since I sent one out. In other words, you won't be spammed from me (too much!)

Thanks again, so, so much for your support!
