Vendor Biography

Born in Dawson Creek BC, 1991, I grew up on an acreage among many farms. Later, we moved to Edmonton where I have lived and worked most my life. In 2012 I graduated from GrantMacEwan University with a diploma in fine arts. I regularly show art in the Edmonton area, contribute to youth art and empowerment initiatives, and occasionally pull together art events or paint nights. Edmonton, has influenced my art with rough, and haphazard aesthetic which I frequently pull inspiration or materials from. I also explore human bodies as symbols in artwork which is influenced by a long history with back pain.
