I’m Valeria Nikonorova, a watercolor artist and creator based in the San Francisco Bay Area. My work blends plein-air landscapes (Big Sur, Yosemite, Zion) with intuitive “Watercolor Play” studies that explore emotion and memory. I’m interested in light, rhythm, and that quiet moment when color feels like breath. Alongside my studio practice, I guide art-based meditation sessions and small workshops. Available for commissions, exhibitions, and collaborations.
