Sebille’s background as an interior designer provides her with the graphic tools her painting demands. One can find the design profession qualities of clarity, warmth, color, space and light; all essential to painting. Moreover, Nicole admits that she can only paint in moments of bliss, which she then attempts to translate through still-lifes, landscapes and floral compositions.
Spontaneity, stark synthesis and creative power sum up Nicole’s art. Her technique is mainly oil applied with a knife. A palette of intense colors and a theme of abundant flowers are her distinct trademark. Nicole says she paints because it allows her to believe in a better future, and it soothes the stress of everyday life. Her technique has allowed an exploration of new possibilities and the opportunity to look for new styles and compositions.
Nicole Sebille is constantly renewing herself, to the pleasure of her collectors. Every aspect of her work brings out an energy and joy of life that can be shared with her viewers.Main Exhibitions

“Nicole Sebille is an artist of feeling: after revealing the color and the atomosphere of a landscape, it remains to her to make her work speak its sensitivity- which is such that it slows each viewer the pleasure of finding his/her own perceptions of the colors, space, and diversity…” -T. Demaubus
“Sensitivity and generosity… are found in Nicole Sebille’s warm palette and constructive build which makes it possible to begin to escape into her subjects to an imaginary world or mentality in which a whole environment is made of a reign of peacefulness and love.” -C. Grente
