The artist story
and a little peek into how we got here
Colour and I have always been best friends. I painted my bathroom ceiling yellow, my office pink and green, I whiz through Toronto on an orange bicycle and once upon a time, I dyed my hair purple.
In the summer of ‘23 Volvo hired me to do a big floral activation. They invited me to bring a local artist into the mix, but a little voice inside said “why not me”?
The result was a 7 foot standing mural that passerby’s could interact with. It was such a success that I started picking up the paint brush more and more to see what I was capable of.
Since then, I’ve been developing my style and sharpening my skills.
Truth is, I’ve always been an artist - heck, I even have a Fine Arts Degree! My practice as a florist - playing with real flowers - has encouraged me to get in tune with my inner artist. A creative blossoming, if you will.
