Description

Nicky’s work is essentially optimistic, whether she’s painting flowers or the sea, the emotions she aims to evoke are hope and happiness. The trees, big skies and hardy heathland flowers of the countryside around my home are a huge inspiration. She is inspired by the sense of time and belonging and watching them through the seasons. Nicky Chubb tries to capture a sense of air and movement as she paints.

Nicky Chubb says:

I originally trained as a designer (BA hons Fashion, Central St Martins 1993). The influence of my love of textiles can be seen in my use of colour, texture and pattern. I am currently exploring the different effects. Happy accidents and controlled corrosion of mixed media in the backgrounds of my tree paintings to create wilder skies.

Drawing the human figure, trying to capture moments in time and changing light is an interest that has always run parallel to my other work. All my figure paintings are in mixed media. Either quick, gestural drawings or multi-layered combinations of ink, paint, collage and resin.
