About

Hello, my name is Angela, my passion has been art since I was 10 years old.
Growing up watching both my older brother and one of my Uncles always creating artwork they have inspired me to create my own artistic journey.

By starting to draw absolutely everything at a young age, my skills grew stronger with each new piece. My classmates would ask me to draw them something, teachers would give me high marks on my art projects. My High School art teacher encouraged me to further my skills by going to college, this is where I graduated with my Bachelor’s of Applied Art Degree through the Art & Design Degree Program from the Medicine Hat College on June 2014.

With this said I possess 46 years of art experience. My on-line portfolio will show that I am a multi medium artist who enjoys helping others create their vision and bring it to life.

My favourite quote, “In order to make something look real, you need to bring it to life.” Jim Henson.

So I took his words and made it my life long goal.
