Nicole C. Maloy recalls drawing on the wall as a very young child. Thankfully, her enthusiasm – and her markers – were gently redirected to paper, and she has pursued her passion for drawing and painting ever since. Her fine art study of portraiture has been primarily self-directed, supplemented over the years by workshops and master classes with a variety of instructors.
Nicole earned a Bachelor’s degree with a concentration in Marketing from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, and later earned an Associate’s degree in Graphic Design from the Art Institute of Philadelphia. Today, she continues to explore her love for the visual arts as she lives, and gazes lovingly at her pastel collection, in Philadelphia, PA.
