Nicole Cipriano has a BA from the University of Oregon and an extensive background in Fine Arts. She is a fine artist and wholehearted crafter who enjoys interlacing the two. She is a graphic designer, seamstress, and a creator of original textile designs. Currently, she manages her own Printmaking studio, Studio Ex Machina. In her Artist Statement, Nicole says,” I am an artist because I have a deep innate desire to explore the fibers of my environment. I am a Printmaker because it allows me to be an artist of all categories. My eyes constantly examine symmetry within my environment for inspiration. I am a draftsman who creates inventions with illustrative plans. I am a sculptor who carefully carves and cuts ideas in relief. I am a painter who prepares the next pallet of colors for application. I am also a seamstress who measures, cuts and sews all the elements of pattern for a finished product.” Nicole loves to share her passion for printmaking! She currently teaches beginning workshops in Woodblock Printing, Linoleum Printing and Monotype. She also teaches Basic Collage and a Hand-Carved Stamping and Stationary workshop.
