Nicola McBride started using the pens after becoming a mum and lacking in studio space.
Nicola McBride, 48, from Perth was eager to unleash her creativity but lacked a studio space and had a child to look after. She needed an artform that could be taken out and put away at a moment's notice without making much mess - so started using Bic Biros.
Her pieces will often represent her childhood memories, including Tunnock's Teacakes, Irn-Bru and The Beano. "I'm a part-time art teacher, and I teach with black biro pen quite a lot, which I really love, so I started off with black biro - just drawing the dog. "My main influences come from pop art - I was really influenced by Andy Warhol. I'm really attracted by ordinary objects that can become art."
The first teacake painting she created sold in under 24 hours - and now all of Nicola's Tunnock's artworks are fully approved and endorsed directly with the company. Nicola is eager to challenge herself further and has begun introducing gin and Irn-Bru glass bottles into her artworks. She started posting some of her portraits on Facebook in 2019, and began receiving requests for commissions to draw other people's pets.
