Nicola (Nicci) Neilson, hailing from England, completed her undergraduate studies at the University of Canterbury Kent (UK) in 1996, earning a BA in Fine Art. Following her graduation, Nicola embarked on a decade-long journey, traversing the globe and painting vibrant, expressive landscapes inspired by her adventures. Her works found homes in various galleries and were acquired by esteemed institutions such as BBC London and Addenbrookes Hospital, Cambridge.

In 2005, Nicci made New Zealand her home and continued her artistic pursuits from a studio space in Waitohi Picton, all while nurturing her family and sharing her passion for art through teaching at primary schools. In recent times, Nicci has delved into the world of ceramics, inspired by a serendipitous encounter with a local ceramicist. This new medium resonated with Nicci's organic approach to design, prompting her to explore its creative possibilities further.
