The Artist

Nikki Saraiva

My name is Nikki, welcome to my creative space! 


I started this website in 2008 to be a keeper of my creative projects for personal documentation. In 2019 I turned my artist name, Detourbutterfly, into a company and turned my main focus to my copper art. This space has transformed over the years, as I have, and I am certain we will continue to do so. Check it out!


 I am a multifaceted published artist with a background in business, art & education. I  

have stretched myself across a creative map. My outlets have consisted of dimensional mixed media art, set design, film production, fashion show production, wardrobe stylist for Miami and New York Fashion Week, as well as a retail business owner for ten years.   


I am currently working with metal, having found my passion for copper. I transform these raw materials into works ranging from whimsical & curious, to nautical & nature. I am a full time professional artist exhibiting nationwide.
