WELCOME TO MY WORLD
Hi, I'm Nichola Ethelston!
​​"I like to capture emotions through the way I paint, this will often come from a thought or experience, or the things in life we take for granted. Because of all the emotions embarked in life, my mind is continuously creating every minute of every day. My art is purely a symbolic diary of my life without words."

My Story
​Nichola is a professional artist, researcher, educator, mentor, wife and mother.
Nichola graduated at Wrexham University with a distinction in a Master of Arts for Arts in Health.
Nichola encourages the promotion of the arts and their health benefits within all education, community settings and in daily life.​ Creating from a young age, Nichola started creating her first portfolio at the age of 8. She decided to pursue her career as an artist during lockdown in 2020. From there onwards, Nichola developed her skills further and found her voice under the mentorship of professional artists and mentors from Milan Art in the United States, completing the fine art Mastery Program. This consisted of online tutoring and zooms, communicating with other artists world-wide.
​Nichola explains her artwork is an opportunity to share her imagination, combining nature through visual literacy. This allowing the opportunity to step out of her comfort zone and explore her deepest thoughts and dreams.​ Nichola quotes:
'I find inspiration in the simple moments of life and the challenges we face. My goal is to encourage viewers to think deeply and seek hope by expressing emotions through symbolism, line, and form. By telling stories through imagery instead of words, I aim to foster expression, freedom, and acceptance of individuality.'
​Nichola enjoys spending quality time with her family, taking trips to the coast and long walks with breathtaking views. Family time is important to Nichola. As a family, they often find ways to create and collaborate together.
