Nikki Parmenter Artworks


The Artist

"I take my inspiration from a variety of multi-cultural sources which are rich and complex.  I am intrigued by the symbolism invented by different races and societies and the way in which objects, natural phenomena, birds and animals are given magical qualities or powers."

Nikki holds a first class B.A. and an M.A. in Fine Arts.  She has been Head of Art at Poynton County High School since 1986 and has tutored A level Art at Tameside College.
