Hello!  I am Nicole — a New England–based artist drawn to vibrant color, playful texture, and the beauty of imperfection. My work celebrates the way art can shift a mood, brighten a space, and change the energy that space provides.

After spending more than 20 years in the corporate world, I finally had an opportunity to pause and focus on art and design – something that has always been a pure source of joy for me.

Slowing down gave me room to explore, to play, and to let something new take root: Petite Bloom.  I create simple designs using paint and texture to bring a unique glow to your everyday spaces.

This journey is still unfolding. I don’t have formal training, and I learn as I go. I am working hard to embrace the process and resist my urge to delay sharing it with the world until I have the perfect photos, the perfect website, and the perfect words.   This is new, evolving, and sometimes feels messy - but that is exactly what I do want to share here.

Being brave is something I work hard to instill in my daughter.  This is a chance to lead by example, so I am choosing to embrace that.

Thank you for your support, enthusiasm and curiosity.  I appreciate you being here.
