Collection: Little Blue Artworks

"Crafting  a wonderland"

Nicky Cairney is an artist based in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. In 2011 she graduated with a first class honors degree in Visual Communication from Gray's School of Art in Aberdeen. She has worked in various mediums over the years such as paper cut illuminated artworks, miniature fairy hut sculptures, illustrations and stop motion animation, which she also began to teach from 2009.

 Little Blue Owl, (the character in her logo), was born in 2012 after deciding to write, illustrate & publish a children's book to her baby daughter. This character has remained her logo since self publishing "Little Blue" in 2014 when she began to build a following selling her prints, cards and books online and in craft markets.

 In 2018, she started teaching felting workshops and making kits as a way of teaching others how to craft their own fuzzy little sculptures and work within the therapeutic nature of needle felting. This has now become her main focus as she continues to spread the art of crafting to others and focuses all her products to better the crafting world with plastic free and natural materials.

 All her work has been influenced by her love of ideas or objects that inspire magic and childhood fantasies. If one of yours is to be surrounded by enchanted lights, timeworn letters and surrounded by fuzzy little woodland animals, then welcome to her delightful world of art, craft and wonderland.
