About Me

I am the youngest of seven children and was raised within the Catholic faith. From a very early age I would often think about God and how life "worked", a couple of incidents stand out to me. I would listen to my father's Sunday dinner conversations of how some churchgoers would seem so spiritual yet cut each other off leaving the church parking lot! He would speak of how certain people would act so pious but would later reveal their prejudice toward certain races and or religions. He blessed my siblings and me with these early lessons on hypocrisy. At the age of five I remember playing with my dolls and reflecting upon what I had learned in church about who we are in relation to God. I remember thinking "so as I am to my dolls, God is to me....but who is to God as God is to me??" That made no sense to me to look at God as a physical being, like man....at this early age I realized that something did not add up with THAT equation.

My oldest brother became a Jehovah's Witness when I was in elementary school, much to the dismay of my parents. One day before I started highschool he shared the book of Revelations with me. As he described what he had learned about the "End of Times", the seals being broken and the good angels coming to Earth to rid the world of the impure and the bad angels, I could think of nothing greater than assisting the "good" angels in bringing peace to Earth.....I was so excited to think of the possibilities of helping. I wanted to be an ambassador of sorts and prayed to God that I would be able to be just that.

These early familial influences inspired me to pay attention to the world, to religion and eventually spirituality. I have always tried to figure out how mankind can live more joyfully and how we can have peace amoungst ourselves and within ourselves. My favorite teacher in 9th grade told us stories of her own experiences with intuition and synchronicities and I was fascinated. She recommended Raymond Moody's book Life After Life. I read it quickly and was hooked and began to read everything I could on near death experiences, metaphysics etc. throughout highschool. Though I had not had any "real experiences" I always felt this wonderful greatness within me....like a powerful well of beautiful energy, but I yearned for more, for my own proof that all of what i read was really real.

After studying many different religions and philosophies in and after college, I joined a weekly meditation spirituality circle before I had my children and finally had my first experience. I was 5 months pregnant with Kelsie and painted a beautiful picture of a woman with long flowing red hair and blue eyes. The background was sunrise and a crescent moon hung in the glowing sky. Kelsie came into this world just like that....at sunrise, with red hair and blue eyes with a crescent moon in the sky....it was my first real vision! Today she looks so much like the woman in the painting!

Despite everything I have read and heard about others experiences and perspectives, I always come back to that joy and great spirit within me and to my own experiences with the divine to guide me. As the years went by, the writings and beliefs of others became less important and my own guidance and connections to the divine became my compass. I am forever grateful however, for the teachings & writings of courageous people such as Eckhart Tolle, Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, Raymond Moody, Dannion Brinkley, Shirley McClaine and Nick Brunick as they have given me the courage early on to reach beyond this material world and to find the truth and beauty of who we really are for myself. And now I encourage others to take the plunge, to let go of exterior influences and beliefs and to listen to and trust their own inner guidance and connections with the divine. A beautiful and totally supportive world awaits you.

About my Art

I studied painting and design at Regis College and began my art career in 1989 with a wholesale hand painted garment business in Florida. I sold my t-shirts, garments and accessories to resort boutiques across the country and then went on to create illustrations for greeting card, packaging, imprinted garment and gift manufacturing companies. I have been a freelance artist since.

After witnessing personally how life's circumstances can change with positive affirmations when I was newly divorced in 1994 raising two young daughters working two waitressing jobs and doing my art on the side, I taped notes with positive sayings on them all over my tiny apartment and listened to motivational tapes whenever i could. Eventually I was a full time freelance artist again and met another great man to share my life with. In 1999, inspired by an amazing dream of angels I took to canvas and began creating a series of angel paintings and allegorical paintings that spoke of manifesting positive results in life. I became actively involved in the Cape Cod holistic health community, painted hundreds of angels on commission and became the publisher of Synchronicity Magazine. Though I loved what I was doing, I felt drained by my spiritual work and the challenges that following this path created in my everyday life. I was fearful of another divorce as my husband, though supportive, did not fully embrace the experiences I was having. I felt that my spiritual work should not have to cause others pain so I shifted into painting more main stream art for a couple of years waiting for the angels to fix the situation.

The call to paint to better the world came again to me after attending the Landmark Forum and Advanced Courses in January 2007. I began a series of Tranformation of Human Consciousness paintings and in the Spring I recieved five requests for Spirit painitings in one week after two and a half years away. The summer of 2007 was spent improving my painting techniques on the steady flow of Angel/Spirit Guide commissions. And in the Fall had the Reconnection Healing Session that changed everything. Three angels appeared to me and asked "Do you remember the dream?"...they reminded me of my own intentions to paint large paintings of angels who would directly interact with the veiwer that I had after the dream in 1999.

I opened a wellness center in Mashpee called The Angel Room originally to create the Angelic Light Project and in three years it grew into a beautiful place of Light. In 2011 I had to close the center and moved off Cape, back to my hometown, Mendon, MA. A blessing in disguise, the move allowed me to now travel to other centers sharing my art, workshops and energywork and I love it.

I am living happily on a dairy farm with my partner, Peter.

Creating these paintings is a sacred process to me. I clear my mind as I look at your photo connecting with your essence, then say a short prayer calling for a connection with your guides and enter a deep meditation for twenty minutes. In my minds eye, I see, converse with and interact with your divine team. One or more of your angels, relatives, master teachers and/or spirit guides will appear in a movie like vision. After I receive the images I write down a description of what I saw, heard and felt then give you the description and paint an image like the ones on this page of what I see; sometimes it is a single portrait and other times it is a scene or various scenes; I leave it up to spirit to guide me.

Testimonials

"Most people think of me as someone who is open but when it comes to spiritually I am guarded and have a difficult time trusting. I received one of Nicki's paintings as a gift form a friend . The process was miraculous. Nicki knew nothing of the work I am involved with, I have been doing peace and justice work as long as I can remember as well as I am a singer in a folk duo with my husband . The name of my angel is "The angel of Peace" and she was playing a guitar.! Talk about validation! She has been a great source of comfort and the realization that beauty surrounds us now and always" ~R.N.

"Nicki's paintings have had a powerful impact on me spiritually. I hang my painting in my room at school and at home and constantly feel as if I am receiving guidance. The experience through which I went while she painted my angels was unforgettable. I was so moved by all that she said that I found silent tears sliding down my face. It was an incredible experience that is irreplaceable" ~J. A.

"Every night when I go to sleep and every day when I wake up, I see my angel painting hanging in my room and I feel the love, peace, and comfort that it evokes in me. Thank you so much for creating this special painting. I feel like it was painted for me!" S. L. (purchased Angel Art)

"Nicki's beautiful painting of my angel lifted me up during a time of severe illness, and forever it will generate the feeling of protection and blessing, and connect me to my angel as if he were holding my hand. I thank her for opening that door." J.M.

"I was recently blessed to have spirit paintings done by Nicki for myself and my two daughters. To have a visual of our guardians provided such a wonderful sense of peace to all of us. Her work is so life-like you can truly feel the energy from them. Nicki's spiritual readings are incredibly validating. On one occasion Nicki had been immersed in my reading and I (living hundreds of miles away) felt an energy through my back that was completely relative to the healing going on in the reading. She has an amazing gift that leaves you with feelings of warmth, love, hope and inspiration." ~S.T.

"Words cannot adequately describe the positive impact of knowing my spirit guide is near. Thank you again for being part of my life, and acquainting me with my spirit guide." ~L.T.

"First and foremost, my spirit painting and those of my family were a definitive affirmation to me that spiritual entities exist beyond those of my traditional Catholic faith. To learn the name of my own guardian angel was fantastic! I now call upon my angel by name when I need help. With much success I might add." ~M.C.

"Nicki’s beautiful energy comes through in every one of her paintings. My personal angel painting is a confirmation of what I have always felt around me!" ~J. C.

"Nicki's spirit painting is a constant reminder for me of God's light ... that we are spiritual beings of light and energy ... that there is so much more to us than meets the eye, mind, etc - your painting is comforting for me. because it reminds me and tells me and assures me that I am loved so deeply and fully. I feel joy when I look at my spirit painting every day I'm home, especially when I am getting out of bed after expressing gratitude for the day, or when I'm leaving my room to embrace the day ... I feel peaceful and happy and hopeful and "unalone" and I actually "beam"! ~J.L.M.
