Nicola Slattery is well known for her distinct style of
figurative - narrative paintings. She also has a background in printmaking and has introduced many people to the "Collagraph" and "Drypoint" techniques which she started teaching back in the 1980's.
Since then many artists have taken up these simple and direct approaches to printmaking after discovering the techniques on one of her weekend art courses or holidays, or reading her articles on them
in national art magazines. These techniques are now popular and in widespread use.
"In an age where fashion is often for all
things digital, I am pleased to have helped to pioneer and promote these hand made printmaking techniques . Although most of my energy now flows into painting there is a deep and continuing link with
printmaking and I often return to thesesimple and directmethods of 'mark making'.
Original limited edition prints by Nicola Slattery can be bought directly from her art studio or delivered worldwide. They have been reproduced in several
printmaking books including: "The Printmakers Cat", "The Artful Hare", "The Little Chicken Book" and "The Elegant Fowl" - all available mail order from publishers Mascot Media.

creativity".
Anne Booth is an author and a recent participant on a weekend art course.
She wrote on Twitter "I am so glad I went on that painting course this last weekend with @artslattery. Sometimes writers need breaks from words. I loved
mixing colours & putting paint on canvas and primed wood. The hours flew by & it was so much fun, & Nicola is so kind and encouraging and
inspiring". 11:46 AM

"Just finished a fantastic two-day Painting in Acrylics course with Nicola at her lovely Norfolk studio. I learned so much and the weekend was great fun. A very relaxed atmosphere with
plenty of support from Nicola and the freedom to work at my own pace. A truly lovely bunch of fellow learners to boot. Already planning my return trip with a few fellow students from today! Highly
recommend."
ane Oliveleft a 5 star review on Google on in May 2022"Thankyou for your calm experienced approach this weekend last. Learnt so much on "painting from imagination"
course. Also enjoyed meeting others and yummy food in idlyic rural setting. Highly recommend."
Chris Plaw sent an email in October 2020 about his recent experience on the Printmaking weekend art course saying:
" I had a great time on the course and learned a lot about printing methods that I never had a clue about. [..] We all worked in a safe environment and
achieved some excellent work. All good news. I will highly recommend you to my friends and associates and encourage them to enrol sometime in the future with you."
Sandra Hanna posted on FaceBook 13th July 2022 "It was an amazing weekend. I learned so much about collagraph and drypoint printing. It was a privilege to be tutored by such a talented and accomplished
artist as Nicola. Beautiful studio too." and Amanda Roberts, also on the same weekend art course added: "Yes it was a great weekend making lots of lovely prints would totally recommend it!"
The weekend art courses are enjoyed by people of varying artistic backgrounds. Some are complete beginners while others are keen to explore
new ideas, artistic techniques and approaches. The weekend painting courses have a particilar focus on painting using acrylics and ideas from imagination. The weekend printmaking courses teach
