Antigua has many wonderful creative talents that utilize materials from its shores. Blessed with considerable deposits of clay, which - in the right hands - can be shaped into gorgeous art, Nancy Nicholson is one of those artists. With steady and skilled hands Nancy turns clay from Antigua's soil into brilliant pieces. Her glazes and paints are a range of aqua, turqoise and indigo blues and themed with marine life with wonderful results.

Nancy's showroom, the Rhythm of Blue Art Gallery in English Harbour features a vibrant display of her own creations along with an eclectic selection of other exciting Caribbean artists.

Beyond her talent with clay, Nancy Nicholson also creates in the mediums of batik, sculpture and oil paint. Tours are available at her studio by appointment by calling +1.268.460-1614 or email arawakart@yahoo.com. Be sure to visit her website: rhythmofblue.com.
