Nicole Roberts

Nicole Roberts is a San Diego based artist that has explored many art forms: illustration, photography, web design, painting, drawing, sculpture, ceramics, music, sound design. She is the founder of Nicole Roberts Studio, where she uses illustration, photography, design and art direction to help companies, brands and publishers globally.

“In my illustration work I like to use a lot of detail and texture. I prefer the look of traditional processes even if I am working with digital tools and brushes. Using my work for brands or clients is incredibly rewarding. And there is also a continual pursuit of expressing a message I value visually such as equality or empowerment or telling the story of the text. What is beautiful is subjective, yes, but I love the challenge of emulating and owning it.”
