Client installation photos of The Third Element (Amphitrite) at home in Atlanta The title references the personification of the sea in Greek mythology This work is about renewal/rebirth and water as metaphor of change, which still feels relevant almost a year later - the painting sold last April, right as the pandemic hit. Huge thank you to @jimschroderatl for the photos and support ~ *This painting weighs 68 lbs & was done over a gigantic, textured dark paintin...g that was a huge mess to create - I kept trying to fix the painting by adding more paint but in the end the artwork felt forced. I decided to redo it (and make it about light and not darkness) when I started thinking my studio floor and drop cloths looked better than the painting Swipe to see detail pics of the finished work and my attempted #vantablack like under painting & the beautiful mess it made . . . . . . #nikkivismara #lightoverdarkness #change #greekmythology #shadesofblue #abstractart #myart #ilovepainting #eatsleeppaintrepeat #largepainting #ilikebigartandicannotlie #bayareaartist #hunterspointshipyard #shipyardartists #sfshipyard #interiordesign #style #beautiful #buyart See more

Un très grand merci to Annie Joly for interviewing me earlier this year about life under lockdown for the expat magazine Le Mag Francophone ~ My work was already isolating so that aspect of the pandemic hasn’t been difficult. This year has taught me (or forced me) to slow down, pay attention to my health, and appreciate what I have. Still, I cannot wait to go back to openings and shows and concerts and friends and traveling and so much moreHopefully soon Swipe to rea...d it in French or click link in bio . . #nikkivismara #magfrancophone #haventforgottenhowtospeakfrench #lafrancememanque #artistlife #exexpat #expatlife #artinthetimeofcorona #eatsleeppaintrepeat #abstractart #abstractpainting #bayareaart #sfartist #hunterspointshipyard #shipyardartists #cocofacekillah See more

Masks up, art up! Install pics w/client at his stunning Napa home earlier this month. The painting is titled SFHP (1) and refers to San Francisco Hunters Poin...t, the neighborhood where I live and work. It’s part of a series I did after renting my current art studio at The Shipyard, a decommissioned naval base on the bay. None of the paintings were based on a specific photo but were done after walking around the Shipyard w/Coco, taking pics and falling in love w/the color blue in the water and sky (that’s what this painting is about, the experience of looking at the sky and water) - swipe to see some of those pics from 2016 ~ SFHP (1) 48H x 72W Acrylic on canvas 2016 SOLD . . . #nikkivismara #wearamask #sfhp #hunterspointshipyard #shipyardartists #hunterspointshipyardartists #thesfshipyard #sfshipyard #bayviewhunterspoint #bayview #abstractart #abstractpainting #shadesofblue #sanfranciscoart #bayareaartist #napa #supportartists #buyart #cocofacekillah #iminlovewiththecoco See more
