About
My name is Nikky d'Aguilar
We have had our home at Newton by the Sea for over 25 years . It’s been at the heart of our family’s lives . People who visit always say it’s a soulful place that somehow captures the heart . People nearly always return .
I am always inspired living here to create. Painting is my reflex response to the wild, windswept coast. There is a constantly changing energy and timelessness that I try to capture . The weathered combination of the elements. The sense of something bigger than us and the power of nature.
Then along came seaweeds. A lockdown discovery. A new secret revealed. Natures own beautiful creations . I am totally in awe of their diversity and delicacy yet withstanding the elements.
My paintings and pressings are all in my own home along with other finds foraged and collected over the years.
