Double Scoop Sessions: Meet Nina Boyd

This month at Double Dip Gallery, we’re excited to feature Nina Boyd, an artist whose work explores the human psyche with a touch of the fantastic, inviting viewers to rediscover wonder in the everyday.

We sat down with Nina over a scoop of Oreo Cookie to talk about her inspiration, creative process, and the meaning behind her latest show.

🍨 The Pairing

Oreo Cookie, A classic choice, perfect for those moments when you can’t decide between vanilla or chocolate.

🎤 Quick Scoop Q&A

What inspired the work in this show?

The desire to find wonder in everyday life. So much of modern living is routine and almost chore-based. I wanted to make a place for joy and magic within that structure. For me, art and nature do that naturally, so this show is an expression of that.

How would you describe this show in three words?

Every Day Magic.

What was your creative process like?

I’m always a bit of both structured and intuitive. I begin with a few pieces centered around a theme that’s been forming in my mind, and through the act of creating, that theme evolves, often into something even more meaningful than I initially imagined.

What do you want viewers to feel?

That the mundane doesn’t have to usurp wonder.

If your art was an ice cream flavor, what would it be?

Pecan Praline, rich, layered, and slightly bittersweet.

Nina’s work is an invitation to pause, look closer, and rediscover magic in the everyday.

Come experience the show in person at Double Dip Gallery, and treat yourself to a scoop while you’re here.
