Nancy Q Studio

 Our oceans connect all life. The sea is beautiful, powerful, nourishing, yet fragile. People can be like this too.  We need to care for our oceans and each other which is why I often focus on the sea and relationships in my paintings.

I paint a lot of mermaids because I love fantasy, the ocean and women.  Mermaids  can be playful and soft while still being strong and a force of nature.  I view women as being like mermaids and the sea.  They have incredible strength, are sensual, give life and thrive when supported.  They are my inspiration.  

My painting  style is characterized by playful vibrant colors with a sense of movement. I love to experiment with different textures.  My paintings are created with acrylic paints and a variety of mixed mediums on stretched canvas.
