I’m Avery Bursey, an independent artist and designer based in Toronto. I collaborate with diverse clients and pursue personal projects that blend traditional and digital illustration with textile and fashion influences. My work spans fine art, portraiture, and commissioned paintings, and I enjoy turning ideas into finished pieces that feel authentic, original, and engaging. In addition to creative work, I manage studio and retail operations—social media content creation, merchandising, and inventory management—while staying hands-on with studio tasks like glazing, kiln work, and hand-painted textiles. I regularly exhibit and sell at art markets, and I enjoy sharing process-driven storytelling through online platforms and in-store experiences.
