Celia is an abstract artist. She began painting in search of self expression and more profound connection with both life and herself.
Celia loves working in large scale and using the motions of her body to direct her work compositionally and apply her mark making. She often uses found objects or things within reach to her as tools to apply paint. Celia loves using limbs of her body to apply mediums to the canvas as well as other found objects. She finds that her environment and the objects in close proximity to her heavily influence her work.
Although Celia’s work is impacted compositionally by her tools, Celia is rarely inspired by tangible objects. She more frequently finds her art being influenced by internal feelings she experiences or emotional connections she holds with other humans. She often refers to her work as a visual journal.
Celia is currently working full time as an artist from her studio in Toronto, Canada
