Eileen

Eileen has a B.A. in Fine Arts from L.I.U. CW Post. She studied art in university primarily as a printmaker. She was in search of a new way to express her creativity that would have more flexibility. Working in acrylic paint on canvas offered her this freedom and the opportunity to work on a larger scale.

Growing up in New York City and living in Toronto, she has always been inspired by the vibrancy of her surroundings. These paintings reflect the liveliness of city living and the observations of life experiences created in a playful and distinctive style. Her paintings have evolved into a kaleidoscope of geometric patterns using colour and shape to enhance, intensify and elevate the design.

She works as if completing a puzzle, balancing the flow of colour and shapes while repeating the patterns to create a sense of movement and harmony. Her art is a process based on what she feels inwardly and her interpretation of the visual experience she has with her surroundings.
