Nicola likes to explore the intersection of fine art, writing, graphic design, and having a good time. A deadline-driven career in marketing and publication design has led to her search for meaning and the pursuit of experimentation as a reaction to external limitations. Her interests include train travel, Japanese stationery, writing by hand, reading and making comics, producing zines, and risograph experimentation. She loves to make zines and has been self-publishing since the 1990's.
