NICOLE WICHMAN
- The Artist
- Born on June 27, 1974 in Pittsburgh, PA. Creating art has been my life, trained initially by my grandfather, Anton Parisson. I continued my education by self training and attending the Visual Arts Center in Portsmouth, VA. I opened two working studio/galleries in downtown Portsmouth, which gave me even more time to focus on developing my work. I paint mainly with oils, but have been known to use clippings, ink, acrylic, and spray paint. Presently, the focus of my work is addressing the oppression of minorities. I have an overwhelming urge to encourage mankind to consider a different perspective on important issues. As a woman and the mother of a bi-racial child, I find it crucial to use my talent to make a difference. My goal is to contribute to the dissolution of the barriers within our society and the promotion of harmony and truth. I am a dreamer and I refuse to give up! I wish the same for you! Check out my work and please share your opinion, I would love to hear from you! EMAIL ME! 757-773-6915

Wow! Congrats! Your art work is so beautiful! I think you're right about our art trying to convey some of the same thoughts and ideas. You are so blessed to be young and where you are in your art! It's taken me awhile. You are absolutely an amazing artist. Also, your son and I share the same cultural experience. He's going to be a great kid, with a sensibility for both sides of America! Keep on creating! Peace,
