Artist Statement “As an artist, I believe that my work is not confined to a single medium. For me, art is a way of interacting with the world around me and reimagining it in unique and inspiring ways. I began my artistic journey as a photographer, which taught me how to truly see the beauty and essence of my subjects. Photography is always my starting point. Later I fell in love with brush work and so as a separate but equally important practice I discovered I could be a 3-dimensional storyteller reinterpreting my captures into a new collection. My art represented by local and international galleries. I live immersed in the beauty of our natural world, fascinated by the interplay of elements and how they shape our perceptions. With my camera as my starting point, I study surfaces and textures, manipulating light to reveal new dimensions of shape and form. I seek out those moments that blur the line between realism and abstraction, offering viewers a fresh perspective on familiar subjects. Through my work, I aim to evoke emotions and connect with the viewers, whether it’s through the energy and joy of an “electric current” or the peaceful serenity of kaleidoscopic ripples. At the heart of my practice is the dance of light and energy, capturing the moment ‘in between’. I work in many mediums but primarily Oil & Acrylic with textural mediums.” – Nikki Baxendale
