Nichole Yanota’s Brilliant Natural World

Posted by Clara in Artists, Portfolio | 1 comment

Raised in the foothills of the Sonoran Desert, Nichole Yanota was greatly influenced by the brilliance of her natural world; the blossoming cactus a perfect coexistence of the fragile and the fierce. In early life, her drawings rose to the challenge of recording emotions and experiences, and became her voice for expressing ideals. She left the desert for the mountains in 2006 and now resides in the beautiful Crowsnest Pass, Alberta. She describes her work as “exploring nature’s connection to the human spirit”.

Each piece is meticulously lined, and pops with bold shape and color. We are particularily fond of the piece above, titled ‘Autumn’s Ravens’
