Nina Brooke is an artist, surfer and traveler. Her jewel-like paintings of the sea, beaches and shorelines capture a unique aerial perspective of the world’s most picturesque places. These vibrant birds-eye-views evoke memories of being by the ocean and they create a focal point in any interior.
Nina grew up between the rugged North Cornwall coast and the azure tropics of The Caribbean. From both sides of the Atlantic, the rolling swell and crystal-clear bays have played a vital role in her creative development.
Nina’s studies led her to Oxford Brookes and Falmouth, where she started refining her style and appreciation for capturing the sea in paint. Nina has also attended courses at the respected Newlyn Art School and was trained by some of Cornwall’s finest professional artists in the art of gesture, colour and textural abstraction.
