“Not only did Nicole transform our plain gray wall into a work of art, she brought a revived sense of pride to our staff and to the neighborhood with her art and message. And the cherry on top was that she was an absolute joy to work with. We could not be happier!” 

- MICHAEL SANDS,
OWNER OF CALVERT WOODLEY FINE WINES & SPIRITS 

“Nicole’s mural made our nondescript building into a vibrant Kensington landmark. The way she involved our community of people with and without disabilities in the designing and painting made it all the more meaningful.”

-Steve Kenner,
Executive Director, Jubilee Association of Maryland

“Nicole’s Wheaton Headquarters mural is a beautiful, active and engaging piece of public art celebrating the great diversity of our community. Its creation was also a tremendous learning experience for five young apprentice artists who will continue the mural painting tradition into our county’s future. Nicole won the commission through an extensive public voting process and they could not have picked a better winner!”

-Paul R. Mortensen,
Chief, Senior Urban Designer, Montgomery County Planning Department
