Nicci Sevier-Vuyk Artist Biography

Nicci Sevier-Vuyk is an American artist known for her colorful, realistic acrylic paintings of iconic objects in culture. Her work is fueled by her interest in the conflict between appearance, its meaning in culture, and substance. The stereotypes of beauty and a playful sense of irony are main themes in her paintings.

Nicci has painted throughout her life and after a career as a pediatric nurse practitioner began her art practice full-time. She has attended The Glassell School of Art in Houston, but is, for the most part, a self-taught artist. Nicci has had two solo exhibitions and has been included in many juried exhibitions. She has twice been featured on The Jealous Curator’s blog. Born in northern California, Nicci creates her work and has made her home in Southborough, Massachusetts.
