Nikole Nelson & I have known each other since our days at the illustrious Savannah College of Art & Design (SCAD), where we were roommates, friends and co-conspirators!  Since then, Nikole & I have collaborated regularly, especially when she launched her New York City-based Nikole Nelson Studios.  After moving back to her native Hawaii (she's from Maui), she took a chance to re-energize & re-brand her now-Honolulu-based enterprise to reflect both her urban NYC experience and her natural Hawaiian roots.

In focusing on collaboration, BLKCORAL brings together a unique blend of creative energies & vision; as well as specializing in both concept and creation.  It really is a unique enterprise!  

Thanks for checking it out!
