Artist Bio:
Nikki Cross is a young Los Angeles-based artist working with oil paint and paper-folding mediums. Using the traditional oil painting technique of glazing, Cross paints macro views of star nebulae, full of depth and light. She ruminates on themes of the universe and nature, and enjoys painting landscapes, flora and fauna. Cross co-runs her own Etsy shop with her husband Jake, where they sells handmade sketchbooks and stationary. Nikki also folds 3-dimensional origami paper sculpture pieces. She prints and cuts her own unique translucent paper, as well as designs her own unique origami folded flowers, leaves,and foliage.
I live with the best guy, in the best city, with the best pet bird ever. Jake is my partner in crime and in marriage. Together we make the applesauce. The world is changing and I want to change too. Sociologist, AmeriCorps member, City Planner ... and now artist. I have a ton of student loans and I feel an immense need to make stuff with my hands.
If I had to make a playlist that defines my life it would be this.
