Nick Syfret has been inspired in the course of his travels by the wonderful objects and designs he has seen:
Iznik plates in museums in Lisbon and Turkey; the tiles of the mosques of Asia; rugs and embroidery throughout.
These objects invite adaptation into pictorial designs. Nick begins each painting with a pencil design,using thereafter acrylic paint which allows the designs to be adjusted and developed in the course of the painting.

In his talk, he goes into depth about being inspired by many of the intricate patterns he saw on the objects and architecture throughout his travels across Asia and Europe.
