Nichole McCoy

Originally from Arizona—a land of luminous skies, sunbaked palettes, and storied landscapes—Nichole channels the soul of the Southwest into every brushstroke. A self-taught artist, she honed her craft through intuition, observation, and an enduring love for the expressive potential of color and form.

Now based in New York, she brings a spirited fusion of art and fashion to life, informed by her experience as a digital illustrator for the esteemed luxury house Hermès of Paris as well her extensive background in the fashion world. Her work now extends into creative collaborations with luxury fashion, beauty, and hospitality clients from around the world, where her distinct visual language brings warmth and storytelling to elevated spaces and experiences.

Each painting begins with a fresh lens—Nichole approaches her work with a desire to create a unique perspective that invites curiosity and leaves the viewer delightfully guessing. With a painterly voice steeped in lifestyle watercolor and oil painting, her work reflects a seamless blend of desert nostalgia, mid-century modern charm, and couture-inspired detail. This vision shines most vividly in her latest series, Desert Disco—a celebration of radiance, movement, and memory.
