ABOUT Vicki
Vicki Fraser is a contemporary artist who works with oils on aluminium panels to create joyful and nostalgic images. She works in a painterly way with thick, flat brushes leaving juicy brush strokes. Areas of flat colour give her paintings a modern, minimal feel while still portraying recognisable and unique subjects.
Vicki has a love for learning and soaks up and studies anything and everything to do with art. Her colour palette is inspired by the stunning landscape of New Zealand. Her warm, earthy neutrals mix with muted blue tones from the sea, soft greens from the bush, and the odd zingy pop just for fun.
Living in the beautiful Bay of Plenty, with her husband and five kids, Vicki is surrounded by inspiration and paints in her light-filled studio in her home. She loves the adventure and freedom of painting with its twists, turns and rewards.
