Nicole White Kennedy

I consider myself a contemporary expressionist and work with oils and acrylics depending on the subject. While I am locally known for my Italian imagery painted with oils using a pallette knife, I love  acrylics for their spontaneous results and exaggerated colors evident in my figurative "beach people" series.
