Alchemy.Using found tools rather than conventional brushes, Nicola’s contemporary abstract art is frequently highly textured and many pieces feature her signature gold leaf in amongst the mixed media. Nicola saw that the body shape of our sheep was very similar to a Shetland Ram which is a brown/black base so she decided to decorate it using a black base layer and added real gold leaf flecks on the wool and all gold leaf horns which makes a dramatic effect.The sheep's main bodies measure approximately 90cm long x 72cm high x 30cm wide. Artist:Nicola Warner.Nicola Warner has lived in rural Suffolk since the 1970s and has also spent much time in Cornwall over the last 2 decades. Having sketched and painted since her childhood, her love of art led her to a 3 year period of running her own gallery in Framlingham, Suffolk. Drawing her inspiration from the vastly different shorelines of both Suffolk and Cornwall, she also benefits from the natural forms and botanical shapes she encounters in the rambling garden outside her studio. Using found tools rather than conventional brushes, Nicola’s contemporary abstract art is frequently highly textured and many pieces feature her signature gold leaf in amongst the mixed media to which she is drawn. Intuitive and using a varied colour palette, her work appeals to both corporate and private collectors.
