about me
My Story
Greetings! I'm Alexandra, a lifelong artist hailing from the charming village of St-Valérien de Milton in Québec, Canada. Je parle aussi français! From a young age, art has been my companion, with sketches adorning my mother's accounting sheets as my first canvas. Today, my passion has blossomed into a vast collection of artistic media, a testament to my insatiable creativity.
In my world, it's all about celebrating the intricacies of life, finding beauty in every detail, especially in the embrace of nature. From the changing hues of sunlight on snow to the delicate dance of raindrops on leaves, I revel in the simple yet profound wonders surrounding us.
Through my art, I aspire to brighten your day with the beauty found in simplicity. Portraits have become my chosen medium because, to me, our connections, memories, and loved ones define the very essence of our humanity. Since losing my father, I've learned to cherish those who choose to stay in my life, and my work is a reflection of this sentiment. Portraits capture the fleeting moments, the joy, and the simplicity of everyday life, preserving them for generations to come.
My artistic journey has been shaped by a dedicated pursuit of knowledge and skill refinement. I delved into the world of visual arts and animation at Cégep du Vieux Montréal, immersing myself in the diverse realms of creative expression. These academic pursuits not only honed my technical abilities but also fostered a deep understanding of the nuanced language of visual storytelling. The fusion of traditional artistic principles with modern animation techniques has equipped me with a versatile skill set, allowing me to breathe life into my creations. It is through this fusion of formal education and personal exploration that I continually evolve as an artist, bringing a rich tapestry of skills and insights to each stroke of my pencil.
