Jacquie Nicholas
Jacquie was born in the Rhondda valley after the last war in a full blown mining community. With no colour either in the environment or in the home, her hunger for colour fed her imagination.
She was educated at Gloucester and Cheltenham art college and Portsmouth teacher training college. She loved the pottery workshop and lived there after lectures.
She was married in Norway, where her daughter was born. Unfortunately she lost 3 year's work of oil paintings and pottery when she went to Norway. (She can identify them if she finds them in Cork street galleries.)
She took part in the first Oxford Art Weeks (all that time ago) and exhibited in Kingham.
Her paintings of Oxford have been in Oxford galleries over many years.
Mountain village life in Andalusia steered her watercolours to heftier work on boards and soon became sculptures from finds of throwaway items which resulted in an exciting return to three dimensional work which she now produces in Faringdon.
