Tina is a figurative artist with a deep interest in capturing human expression. Specializing in portraiture, she brings people (and occasionally their pets) to life on canvas and on paper, infusing her work with personality and narrative depth.
Tina holds a Fine Art Studio degree from the University of Toronto and continued honing her craft through illustration classes at OCAD, as well as ongoing studies at The Toronto School of Art and the Academy of Realist Art Toronto. While she works in a variety of mediums, oil paint is her go-to for its richness and depth.
Her work explores character and emotion, often incorporating subtle storytelling elements that add intrigue and playfulness. Whether painting a thoughtful portrait, an expressive figure, or a beloved pet, Tina’s goal is to create pieces that feel both deeply personal and universally resonant.
