Nikki Attree (nee Nicole Davidson) was born in 1962 in Bedford, England. She is an artist, photographer and author living in Tenerife, Spain. She graduated with a degree in photography from the University of Westminster, London in 1988, worked as a freelance photographer in the UK before moving to Tenerife in 2007, where she began making sculpture and painting with acrylics on canvas.

Along with her art work, Nikki also helps to promote the hardworking animal rescue centres in Tenerife, by producing calendars for them, and running social networking campaigns. Nikki's website

Her “Digital Dogs” images (some of which were produced for the 2011 calendar) celebrate Man’s Best Friend in a variety of quirky, fun and unusual settings: a skateboarding dog, a pooch making music on a laptop, a pup driving a truck …

Her work has appeared in galleries, magazines, and is available to buy from the London Art website. Her stock photos are available from Alamy and Photofusion

Nikki will be having an exhibition in 2019 ‘Rescue Me’ at the ‘Adeje Cultural Centre’ Tenerife which aims to raise awareness of the issues of abandoned dogs.

She has published two books, co-written with her husband, Richard Attree,inspired by her work with the dog refuges and owning a rescue dog herself: ‘Nobody’s Poodle’ (published in 2013) and ‘Somebody’s Doodle‘ (2016) – both are available as paperbacks and e-books from Amazon.
