Testimonial
Tilde, commissioned me to paint their sweetie's cat, Ellaria, because they're all moving in together. What an awesome housewarming present!
I had a great time painting Ellaria, she's a beautiful cat with super shiny fur. At first glance you may think she's a black cat, but if you look closer you'll see a ton of colors and reflections happening in her fur.
Ekate, the recipient, says: "Perfectly captures my little gremlin's mischievous soul. Adorable as f*ck. Can't wait to hang it in our joint apartment, so I can always gaze at Ellie, even when she is hiding in the bedroom and doesn't want company."
Tilde adds: "Nicole was a dream to work with! Responsive, delivered amazing work exactly on the timeline she said she was going to, and thoughtful about every nuance of how she communicates."
