Nicola Duncan

I'm a self-taught artist, what you might call a 'late bloomer'.  In 2015, faced with a cancer diagnosis, I began drawing and painting to find some peace and quiet in amongst the noise of my life at that time.  Drawing hundreds of fine lines in ink became a very effective meditation for me and a new source of deep, deep joy.  

I seem to produce work very organically and regularly jump about from medium to medium.  In particular, I love drawing fine lines because of what the process teaches me: to be present in the moment, not to judge (when they go wobbly), or to remember that they only exist and take shape because of the gaps in between them.

I paint, draw and work digitally, where the possibilities for ending up miles from where you started are just incredible.  I also work on timber, using a technique called pyrography, which is burning patterns and artwork into wood.  

Thank you so much for dropping by and taking the time to view my work.
