Choosing artwork is more than just decorating a room—it is about creating an emotional connection to your space. When a piece truly speaks to you, it can uplift your mood, inspire your day, and even reflect who you are. It is not about matching the couch or following trends. It is about what brings you joy every time you walk into the room.
Australian contemporary artist Nicki Baker-Comelli, a master at capturing both memory and motivation, creates artwork that resonates with personal experiences. Her vibrant collections, blending layered oil textures with graffiti-style marks, create bold, painterly works that linger in the memory. Each brushstroke tells a story—whether it is about chasing dreams or sharing a chocolate biscuit with friends.
What Does Artwork Say About You?
Artwork often reveals what you value and the feelings you want to surround yourself with. Do you enjoy nostalgia, colour, or stories from your past? Or you may seek pieces that motivate you to push forward and take risks. Nicki Baker-Comelli creates works that embody both aspirational energy and personal history.
The artwork you choose can be bold and confident, just like you. Or sentimental and quiet, reminding you of treasured moments. There is no wrong choice, only what feels right in your heart.
Feelings That Fill a Room
When you choose the right artwork, it has the power to completely transform the atmosphere of a room. A well-chosen piece can infuse your living space with calm, excitement, or joy. Nicki Baker-Comelli’s collections create a visual energy that lingers long after you leave the room, leaving a lasting emotional impact.
Her signature oil painting techniques create texture you can almost feel. The graffiti touches add attitude, movement, and personality. These layered elements combine to form artwork that connects deeply with those who see it.
Your First Piece of Artwork
Purchasing your first piece of original artwork can feel like a milestone. It often marks a new chapter in life—moving out, renovating, or simply deciding to surround yourself with creativity. The first piece you choose will likely stay with you for many years.
Australian contemporary artist Nicki Baker-Comelli’s works are an excellent starting point. Her Just Do It series is aspirational, full of power and motivational. It celebrates individuality, movement, and success —ideal for a first-time collector who wants something bold and vibrant.
When you walk past a piece from this series, you feel inspired to act. It might feature a Nike Air Jordan shoe layered with graffiti, oil texture, and movement. These artworks radiate ambition. Perfect for a bedroom, entrance hallway, office or stairway—where a boost of confidence is always welcome.
Each piece is framed and ready to hang. More miniature artworks also come beautifully gift-boxed, making them a memorable present for someone starting their art journey.
The Pantry: Comfort and Memories
If you prefer artwork that celebrates moments from the past, Nicki’s The Pantry collection is the perfect fit. These paintings explore everyday items from Australian life, including biscuits, lollies, and iconic pantry staples. One of the most beloved paintings in this series features the Tim Tam.
The humble Tim Tam is more than a biscuit. It is an Australian treasure that brings people together. Some people bite both ends and sip tea through it. Others savour it slowly, square by square. Then there are those who sneak one when nobody is looking—to have that perfect moment to themselves.
Nicki’s Tim Tam painting captures the joy and warmth of these shared rituals. It brings laughter and nostalgia into any space. When guests see it, they instantly share stories about how they eat theirs. The artwork becomes a conversation starter and a source of connection.
Artwork That Connects People
Good artwork makes you feel. Great artwork brings people together. Nicki Baker-Comelli’s The Pantry pieces do precisely that. A painting of a biscuit or lolly is not just an image—it is a memory, a tradition, and an invitation to share.
These works spark connection at dinner tables, over cups of tea, and during casual chats in the living room. Each painting is a reminder of the small things that make life beautiful. Perfect for adding a sense of warmth to your own home or as a gift to someone you love.
Nicki Baker-Comelli’s unique ability to blend fine art with pop culture sets her apart among Australian contemporary artists. She paints with a raw emotion and energy, drawing inspiration from street art, memory, and personal experience. Each of her pieces is a testament to her creativity and individuality.
Her artwork is never mass-produced. Every piece is original, professionally framed, and carefully delivered. Smaller pieces are gift-boxed, making them ideal for birthdays, milestones, or just because.
Whether you choose a motivational piece from the Just Do It or a nostalgic memory from The Pantry, you are choosing to bring emotion into your space. You are not just buying artwork—you are buying a story.
How to Choose the Right Piece
Start by asking yourself: how do you want your space to feel? Comforting? Energised? Inspiring? Then, choose a piece that brings that emotion to life. If a painting makes you smile or catches your breath—trust that feeling.
Look for colours that match your mood, not just your walls. Let the subject matter speak to your interests and values. Choose artwork that reminds you of who you are—or who you want to become.
And always remember: you are allowed to fall in love with art. It is emotional, personal, and one of the most rewarding things you can bring into your life.
