Nicole Rulff

I have been practicing and studying photography and painting for most of my life. I began when I was just an adolescent, inspired by my father and artists like Freeman Patterson, and armed with an old film camera passed down through the family and a sketchbook. My artwork strives to convey the feelings evoked from immersing ourselves in the natural world. Whether these be feelings of deep belonging and serenity, or feelings of vulnerability and urgency; my goal is to connect us all more deeply to our local environments by looking beyond the obvious and spectacular to the beauty and complexity in the unassuming.
