In 2008 Virginia won 2nd place at the Wilson Ministry Center Art Show located in Harford County Maryland. This started her off to the next path to her art career. She began painting during the early 90,s. Virginia is mostly known for her landscape, and waterfowl art, and still life paintings. She credits the good Lord for his love and the talent He so kindly gave to her. https://www.instagram.com/virginia_lnicklepaintings/more
