Muralist and mischief-maker

I've been a practicing visual artist for almost 20 years but it wasn't until October 2021 that I got into mural painting. I was accepted into a mural mentorship workshop and was hooked immediately! I completely fell in love with spray painting and I thrived off the community vibes. In the spring and summer of 2022 I was given access to an abandoned building in which I was able to practice my aerosol skills and find my painting style, a project for which I received a skill development grant from the Canada Council for the Arts. All of this prepared me for 2023, when my mural painting really took off! Last year I painted 16 murals, four of which were international, I assisted on several of professional murals, and I live-painted at multiple events. This is just the beginning of my life as a muralist. I can't wait to see where 2024 takes me.
