For the love of nature
The story of Charlotte Nicolin begins with a fascination and love for animals and nature that started in early childhood. She chose to pursue her interests by becoming an illustrator and painter to show her unique perspective. Throughout the years her style may have varied but her vision and purpose has only grown stronger. With her platform, she aims to raise awareness towards animal protection and push for conservation of our natural ecosystems.

Can you use art as a tool to bring out empathy in people, for them to better understand and respect animals and nature? We believe so. By giving the animals in her drawings human attributes, Charlotte wants to enable a deeper connection with them. “Often people stop in their tracks when they walk by my shop and just smile, they say my animals have human-like expressions. All this encouragement is reassuring, it makes me feel that my work has an impact, that I'm making 'art for a reason'.”
