My name is Hailey Collings, a 29-year old Canadian freelance artist from Ontario, Canada, working across illustration, content creation, design, and brand development. With a Bachelor’s of Fine Arts in Drawing & Painting, and a deep passion for all things creative, I invent visuals that balance creativity and intention across digital and physical spaces. My experience spans visual arts, branding, content creation, graphic design, and digital marketing, alongside 8+ years in municipal roles that shaped my structure and client approach. I’ve also worked as an art instructor, and I value both teaching and continuing to learn through my work. Alongside this, I run my own creative practice where I am the Creative Director & Founder of HCART Studios (@haileycollingsart - can be found on all social media platforms to display my online portfolio). There I create artwork, videography, merchandise products, and content around evolving brands. Open to creative roles, collaborations, and opportunities, anywhere I can create.
