A surreal maximalist multimedia artist from Edmonton, Alberta.

 

Currently residing in Edmonton Alberta.

Alongside digital art venturing, the physical mediums I have studied and continue to practise include charcoal, acrylic paints, ink drawings and screen printing as a process. Creating work digitally came from almost a whim, blooming into a worthwhile permanent exploration. As I took the Fine Art program from Edmonton’s MacEwan University (2016-2019),  the cleaning out of our supplies at the end of our last term transferred a Wacom Intuos 3 tablet into my hands from a kind pal giving this gear away. Here started my digital journey.

The approach: a painterly and drawerly approach with interest in the human and very raw finish of physical art. The findings: its medium being unique in it being varied colours of pixels of light along with absence of light. Surreal maximalism with absurd elements; always trading off between music and art as outlets and causes for inspiration; screen printing has been my bridge between these creative corners.

Willing to work for commission. Happy if you are just stopping by as well to say hi and have an eyeball adventure. <3
