Hello! I’m Natalie Rotman Cote – Fine Art Nature Photographer, Painter, Dog Mom, Wife, Sister, Auntie & Great Auntie. And a retired Software Engineer of 30 years.

When I’m not with my family & our dogs, I’m out taking photos, painting, creating pottery, adventuring on my e-bike or playing pickleball. And I’m always learning something new – I’m 100% a curious creative! 📸🖌️

Through my work, I love to capture the beauty around us with a spirit of awe. My hope is that when you experience my art, you’ll feel the same sense of joy, peace, and whimsy I do while creating it.

Before following my creativity full-time, I was a software engineer - a path that, surprisingly, wasn’t so different from making art. Both involve building something, layer by layer, until you reach that magical ‘aha’ moment when it all comes together beautifully into a finished piece of work.

While building my career, I sought out creative classes like drawing, pottery and painting as a way to relieve the stress of corporate life. I know so many can relate to that need and I hope to bring the fun, stress-free joy of creativity to others.

I live in the beautiful state of New Hampshire USA, where I share my home with my husband, Steve, and our two beloved dogs, Niki and Willow. We are true animal lovers and we have been blessed to share our lives with many amazing dogs.

Thank you so much for stopping by Natalie’s Art! 💖
