Niocla Bealing’s carnival world is both vibrant and unruly.
The fluency of her spontaneous technique enraptures the movement of her characters as they dance across the painted surface. Like characters from fairy and folk tales, they are alight with Bealing’s anarchic imagination.
Bealing’s inspiration comes from the everyday scenes and her travels in the Far East and Thailand as she narrates the stories of the various people and scenes in her painted cameos.
Nicola currently works form her studio in Cornwall and regularly exhibits throughout the UK.
