Nichola Robinson is a 25 year old artist, born in Dubbo New South Wales, Australia. She has been involved in art and painting since she was very young. In her teenage years, Nichola began painting at the studio of local artist Peter Mortimore, who guided her in developing her artistic skills. She had her first exhibition in December 2000 at a local gallery.

Despite suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Nichola went on to win the Mosman Youth Art Prize in 2002, the prize being a scholarship to the Julian Ashton Art School in Sydney, and attended there for a year, as much as health permitted.
