Hickman's art has been described as representational landscapes and architectural landscapes. Using soft pastels on a black surface to draw out the vibrancy and intensity of her color palette, Hickman takes pleasure in looking at ordinary objects in extraordinary light. "The light in the morning is different from the light in the afternoon and can shape the way your eye perceives something, even something as everyday as the corner of a house," Hickman remarked. She draws inspriration from the Delmarva peninsula, particularly her native Bethany Beach.

Many of her works depict "gently aging buildings" along Delaware shores, and she also has been fascinated with the countryside of Tuscany from her stay in Italy in May, 2001.
