Power pose in an art studio (aka my favorite place)💪✨ I’m coming up on my last month in this sweet Austin studio, and I’m savoring the days here 💘 this residency has been an intentional reset and time for healing a broken heart/fractured life; it has also been an opportunity to recover from the busiest and hardest years of my career. I think so many of us were hammered by the pandemic, in a multitude of ways—you guys, what really happened? I was fearful, and busy, and I did everything I could to cope. Honestly in many ways I flourished. But this weird sense of total whiplash and confusion is at the edges of my psyche (like: are we ok? Am I ok?). I don’t have an answer yet, but I’m still asking myself and the universe some big, big questions and spending extra time listening for the answers. If you happen to have thoughts I’m all ears 🙃 this portrait is by the beautiful and talented Austin photographer @shanaberenzweig please visit her page and give a follow, or reach out to her about portraits of your own (don’t we all need awesome pictures in our happy places??) 📸🫶 #ninatichava #studioportrait #femaleartist #womanpainter #studioview #studiovibe #poser (at Springdale General) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cqal6rOuoWr/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Swimming in the details 🫶 I’m making these monotypes in groups, but when I slow down to see them as individual artworks, I fall in love with moments in each one—and that’s the magic of my job, and why I’m so lucky I get to do this everyday ✨ these 14x11 #monotypes will be available in Park City @gallerymar in a few weeks, until then I’ll enjoy thinking about the uniqueness of each one here in my studio 🦄 #ninatichava #studioview #onthetable #inthestudio #studiovibe #monotypes #botanicalprints (at Springdale General) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpxT6-dOdZG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s the last couple of months of my residency in Austin with @flatbedpress where I’ve been working steadily at night printmaking 💪 in the daytime I’ve been keeping up my regular schedule at a small studio I rented in East Austin @springdalegeneral from the wonderful folks @urokoaustin if you want to schedule a studio visit I’m starting to make appointments, let me know! I’m also considering an open studio event before I leave 🙂 this photo is from the talented Austin photographer @shanaberenzweig 📸💕 #ninatichava #studioview #artistportrait #artoutside #austin #femalepainter #womanartist (at Springdale General) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpnI9bxOAXH/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

“I’m lost in the light/Lantern Series”; 12x60 inches; acrylic, ink, pencil, pen, paper collage and brass on panel; title from Bahamas; available in Park City later this month ✨ I’m still thinking about sunrises and sunsets, grief and new beginnings 🌅 I’m in my final two months working and living in Austin, and I feel like my heart is not only mending, but growing 💗 the greatest thing about this residency has been time—time to step away from my complex, full (and totally wonderful) life in Santa Fe to find the spaces in my own heart that haven’t had much light these past few years 💙 I’m a total bummer in moments and not having as much fun as I’m supposed to, but that’s ok—going through sadness means you can hopefully get to the other side and find the lightness ☀️ I’m grateful for the flexibility afforded me by my painting practice, and the support from my network that makes this all possible 💝 #ninatichava #newpainting #newfavorite #lanternseries #studiowall #studioview #studiovibe #austin (at Springdale General) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpiBSn9Opzc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The 10th anniversary show DECADE at @laurarathefineart Dallas is up and it’s incredible 🙌 curation of a large group show is such a difficult thing, and the talent of @janicemeyers and @carlymmalm is evident throughout ✨ if you have a chance to stop by the gallery this month I highly recommend 👌 the anniversary party on Thursday was a casino night and so much fun, even during a tornado warning—wow Texas, your weather is *dramatic*!! 😳I snapped these pics on arrival, my work paired with a couple of personal favorites @sydney.p.yeager in slide two and @mattdevineart in the third pic 🫶 reach out to the gallery for more info, and get yourself to Drayon Street if you can! #ninatichava #artexhibition #groupshow #galleryview #gallerywalls #dallasartsdistrict #dallasartscene #dallasart (at Laura Rathe Fine Art) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpXwbdkrjF6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Just a few more days until my opening in Jackson ✨ I’m currently transporting the last paintings across the west (not a small task in winter you guys! I was already caught in an interstate closure of 6 hours in New Mexico, caused by a snowstorm resulting in multiple accidents on I-40 🥺) but I was safe and warm and had Edward + snacks so I’m counting myself lucky 💝 I’m asking the weather gods to be kind as I continue this drive through the mountains of Colorado, Utah and Wyoming🤞I hope to be meeting people in Jackson at the opening @gallery.wild with @bridgette_meinhold on 2/17! 🍾🥂 the drive is long but so worth it, right?? #artistlife #ninatichava #partsofpaintings https://www.instagram.com/p/Com0FYeO-sD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
