Nicole Peña's Art Studio
This website serves as a collection of my creative journey as visual artist. Here, you’ll find a curated selection of my paintings and calabash art spanning several decades—from early vintage creations to my latest pieces. I hope you enjoy the collection.
Some of the paintings and all of the calabash on my website are available for sale. If you would like to visit my studio to view my paintings in person please contact me.
A selection of my original paintings and the full collection of hand-painted calabash works are available for purchase. For those interested in acquiring art, discussing custom commissions or experiencing the physical depth and luminosity of these pieces firsthand, I warmly welcome private studio visits by appointment in Toronto. Please feel free to reach out directly through the contact page to inquire about available works or schedule your personal viewing. Thank you for visiting, and I hope you enjoy exploring the collection.
Being a painter is not only about creating art; it's also about building connections and inspiring conversations. As an artist I attempt to transcend boundaries and invite others to see the world through my hopeful and inquisitive gaze.

Selected Figurative Paintings
My work explores the human form through bold colors and dynamic poses. This selection of figurative paintings offers a glimpse into my ongoing artistic journey—where traditional depictions of everyday people meet my futuristic vision.
Hand Painted Calabash
Explore my hand-painted calabash collection, where natural form meets vibrant artistic story. Each piece celebrates the raw, organic beauty of the natural gourd, thoughtfully transformed through bold iconography, deep textures, and luminous color. These three-dimensional works bridge traditional craftsmanship with a contemporary Afrocentric vision, serving as unique, tactile art pieces for any space.
