Testimonials

You are so talented, the detail is beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing your work.

Vicki, I absolutely feel like crying. Itā€™s amazing, so perfectly connected to the Hope wall. I canā€™t stop looking at it! Really beautiful. It makes me believe we can get rainbow paint!

Our little hare friend arrived safely and appears quite happy with his new home! And we, his new caretakers, couldnā€™t be more thrilled with him and delighted with your brilliant work!! Heā€™s even more gorgeous than in the pictures. I am over the moon.

My father-in-law isnā€™t often moved to shed a few tears but your portrait certainly did just that. As birthday presents go I think you nailed it for him!

Just awesome Vicki. The movement you create and use of colour are stunning.

THE ARTIST

About Vicki

Vicki Davidson is an artist with a passion for bright, dynamic and inspirational art.Ā Always keen to experiment, Vicki works in oil, pastel, acrylic, watercolour, charcoalā€¦and anything she can get her hands onĀ to make a mark really! Subjects include portraits, animals (especially hares!) and, more recently, landscapes.

Although Vicki studied art and design at ā€˜Aā€™ Level, a busy career in nursing has left little time for her passion. Vickiā€™s nursingĀ career has taken her around the world, including London, Australia, an African expedition and even some time in a FieldĀ Hospital during her time as a reservist with the Queen Alexandra’s Royal Army Nursing Corps. Now her two children areĀ growing up, and needing her less, Vicki has decided to pursue her passion for art.

In 2017 Vicki started sharing her work onĀ social media and in a few select local galleries. The artwork has rapidly generated a keen interest, resulting in commissionsĀ and requests for prints of the work.Ā Vicki still works as a nurse for the NHS, currently a Clinical Matron at The Friarage Hospital in Northallerton, North Yorkshire.Ā Vicki, originally from Dartmoor in Devon, lives on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales with her husband and two children.

Hare number 7, for the 7th day of March šŸ° 

This is ā€˜beautiful Hareā€™, created with watercolour on paper.

I loved painting this; the watercolour worked well and the tones are warm and rich. I often use ink to bring out further detail on my watercolour paintings, but I didnā€™t think beautiful hare needed anything further šŸ’•

Hare number 6!

This was a commission and Iā€™m really sorry but not available as a print šŸ˜” 

This is a mountain hare, created with soft pastels on card.

Mountain hares can be found in the UK in Scotland and Northern England and has a grey/brown coat in summer, with a bluish tinge, and turns white in winter, only ear tips staying black.

Although I live in Northern England, and visit Scotland frequently, I have never seen one. Anyone one know a good place to go to see them?

Hare number 4 for you, on the 4th day of the month.

This was an acrylic painting on a large, square canvas.
The richness of colour was achieved through many layers and a technique called glazing which is the application of thin translucent layers to build up colour.

This one is available as a fine art print, greeting card, coasters and bags!

šŸ° March 2nd, and hare number 2! šŸ° 

This painting marked the end of a (very long) hiatus.
Created with soft pastels on paper. There are no prints Iā€™m afraid and the original was framed and gifted.

I think it is common for creatives to lose their practice when life is busy with family commitments and work, and then return a bit later in life. To be fair, Iā€™m not sure quite whatā€™s changed as I still work full time & have a family šŸ˜‚ but somehow manage to carve out protected time to paint and draw šŸŽØ 

I think thatā€™s why I keep coming back to painting hares as this one was so significant to me.

Iā€™m still not sure I have 31 to share with you each day this month, but weā€™ll definitely be close!

Hello March! šŸŒŗ 

Iā€™ve decided to share a ā€˜hare-a-dayā€™ this month. 

I have no idea of if I have completed enough hare paintings and drawings to do this, i suspect I have, but havenā€™t actually counted šŸ˜‚ 

If I donā€™t have enough, Iā€™ll paint some more šŸ™Œ 

So, letā€™s start with this popular image - ā€˜Meadow Hareā€™

Bright, bold and colourful šŸ’› šŸ’š šŸ©· 

Enjoy x

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you take commissions

Unfortunately I am unable to take new commissions just at the moment, this is because my waiting list is full.

Donā€™t worry though, commissions will be available again, so please keep an eye on the website and my social media accounts for updates in regard to this.

Do you ship overseas?

Yes! Shipping costs are applied in the shop. If you are outside the UK and your order includes a framed original, then please get in touch via hello@vickidavidson.comĀ to arrange shipping of this item.Ā 

Is your work available in galleries?

Yes. I have work in the following local galleries if you would like to visit and view paintings in person.

Coastal Fine Art and Framing, Town Hall Buildings, Northallerton, North Yorkshire.

https://www.facebook.com/townhallbuildings

The Animal Art Gallery, Malton, North Yorkshire

First Impressions Bespoke Framing, Barnard Castle, North Yorkshire

https://www.artiosgallery.com

Do you supply prints in frames?

Prints are supplied with a hard backing board and laser-cut mount in a neutral colour (usually cream or white). It is then acetate wrapped for protection.

I can arrange bespoke framing if required. This can take up to four weeks, will be priced individually depending on choice and will incur a higher shipping cost.

Again, for original works, if not already in a frame, then I can assist with this.

Please contact me via hello@vickidavidson.com to discuss your framing requirements

I hope you will be delighted with your new artwork. However, in the unlikely event you are not entirely satisfied then please contact me via hello@vickidavidson.com

I am happy to provide a full refund provided the artwork is returned in perfect condition. Return shipping costs to be paid by the customer.

Can I order prints in different sizes?

Yes! Please contact Vicki via hello@vickidavidson.com to discuss bespoke print sizes.

What is GiclƩe printing?

GiclĆ©e is a French word (pronounced Zhee-Clay) which literally means ā€œfine spray”. GiclĆ©e fine art prints are produced digitally on high quality inkjet printers, which have the capability to reproduce a much wider range of colours than conventional processes, due to the specially formulated inks and media used. The GiclĆ©e process is really the only current solution available to artists who wish to obtain a close match to their original work and have the peace of mind that the prints will remain vibrant and fade resistant for decades to come.

All of the printing at Vicki Davidson is carried out by Nidd Imaging. Their quality of prints is exceptional!

Each print is approved by Vicki to ensure the colour match is as exact as possible to the original.

You can see more about Nidd Imaging and their printing process via; http://www.niddimaging.co.uk/
