Portraiture

I enjoy painting portraits of people from life. I enjoy sitting with them as I paint and hearing their stories. I especially like painting trans and non-binary people.

Some portrait commission slots are available for local trans and non-binary portraits in return for donations (negotiable) to the Ottawa Trans Library. Contact us via the form at the bottom of this page.
