Nikki Crawford
A talented abstract mixed media artist, originally from Los Angeles, California. Raised in sunny south Florida, currently residing in Charlotte North Carolina.
Nikki uses an array of mediums to transform her visions into abstract art, featuring a blend of modern, contemporary & expressionist styles.
“Inspiration is living. Art has life and can be found everywhere if you slow down and take time to really observe. My designs are often inspired by people, cultures, society, events, shapes, colors, music and imagery from my dreams. I find art is one with my heartbeat and I am grateful to be able to share apart of my mind and soul with my viewers.”
“Welcome to the world inside my mind. All artwork is created originally by me utilizing many diffident mediums: acrylic, mixed media and digital.”
“My love for art has been with me since I was a child. I discovered painting while obtaining my art degree at UCF. It was then I realized my love & passion for painting. Studying under Walter Gaudnek opened my world to a new aspect of my mind. For me this blossomed into a burning desire, that as since then ignited my soul. Art has opened the door for me to undress my passion while therapeutically allowing for deeper exploration of my soul.”
My philosophy is cultivated in color, transparency, & love.
The one thing about the fabric of the universe is that it is fill with many colors, patters, textures and hues. This makes up the true key of understanding the universe. As we are the fabric of this life, the fabric of this universe.
Art allows me to move through this realm. Weaving in & out with every brush stroke. Every detail is an electrical connection from my soul to the universe itself. Colors truly give me life, it guides me to my purpose, I can feel their vibration and I work with them to convey the complexity of my intricate source.
“Be like the art you are, and just be.”
