Nicola Woodcock - Bio​

Nicola is a Sydney based artist. Working in her Terrey Hills studio she draws inspiration from the surrounding bush landscape. The relatively crude nature of oil pastels encourages the focus on simple line and colour and promotes a use of decisive, gestural marks. Nicola's still life pieces are usually ‘finds’ from her neighbours’ gardens, from the roadside or local reserves.
