What People Are Saying
“Nicole surrenders herself to the creative process, letting herself go without being afraid of her emotions. She lets herself be carried away and creates an energetic, pure, brilliant work ... Nicole bares her soul, she is not afraid to show her feelings and this makes her brave. She expresses her world with the aim of helping the viewer to do the same while looking at her artworks ... Nicole relates to reality as many avant-garde painters did in the past, letting the artist’s emotions and state of mind contribute to the creative process. The continuous movement, the dynamism of the work also shows an approach to the world of dance and music. Nicole is able to assimilate energy from her surroundings, from nature and the urban landscape, reproducing it on the canvas in an abstract way through the strength and expressiveness of the colours ... Nicole combines several artistic worlds at the same time and creates artworks of art with different levels of interpretation, dynamic and suggestive.”
— Ilaria Falchetti, art curator
“We received your painting yesterday, we were so excited. It sits on the top of the serving table in the living room for now, we need to frame it and hang it up. The color matched with the espresso coffee cups I brought home from Brazil in 1980 so well, I love it. Can't wait to share with my friends :) We also feel the warmth of the artist in the room with us, an indescribable good feeling :) Hope you continue with your fine work, one day we want to visit your gallery!”
— Dana and Michael Auteri, art collectors
“I first met Nicole Javorsky at a coffee shop in New York City in early 2016. We became fast friends, bonding over a love of writing, nonprofits, and thinking deeply about the world around us … Nicole has been instrumental as a voice of reason and logic, inspiration and heart, and talent and time as we’ve grown together as friends (and creative cheerleaders) in the past six years. I am so excited to bring her back to the Smile Project blog to share more of her work exploring the healing powers of art, music, and poetry.”
— Liz Buechele, founder of The Smile Project
"I purchased a painting by Nicole at Gallery Clarendon in 2019. At first glance, I was drawn to the feeling it evoked of peace and calm emanating from a storm. I am enjoying this piece of art daily as it graces my living room wall. Thank you Nicole!"
- Frieda Jafri, art collector
“Why an artist does what they do can be just as important as the art itself. Context, in this case, ignites Nicole's already furiously expressive art into the wildness it is meant to be. It’s a feeling I seldom get with artwork, and Nicole's earnestness with her motivations and the life they bring to her brush strokes means her work - and the heart that beats behind it - are things I will treasure forever.”
— Patrick Tsao, artist and art print buyer

COLLECTION:
Cycle Breakers
Each of the works in my Cycle Breakers series has gone through many stages. The layers underneath look very different! Yet, there is a common thread in the process: creating from stillness, peace, and clarity then creating with bold strokes from intense emotion, and vice versa, repeat, repeat.
Breaking cycles is similar: there’s beauty, hope, and clarity behind the choice to be a cycle breaker. Yet, there’s also messy, wild, intense, confusing, and frustrating emotions to be felt while breaking free and maintaining the boundaries needed to stay free.
The artworks in this series express this duality, my heartbreak AND my hope as a cycle breaker. I hope they also bring validation, solidarity, and understanding to others who've made the beautiful and painful choice to heal from trauma.
