Illustrations with social messages - The CreativeMindClass Blog

"I am a first-generation Canadian artist working as an illustrator and a designer at my Montreal Studio. After pursuing both illustration and design at university and in college and now working in a variety of fields employing both streams of knowledge to produce vibrant and vivid illustrations for packaging, editorials and publishing, and more."

How would you describe the style you prefer?

"I consider my style to be bright, vibrant and high contrast and often has a subdued message of social justice hidden in the background. I am a total color-lover and a bit of a maximalist in my style of art."

What are the most important things to consider when creating your illustration?

"An important aspect of my practice is making art that reflects my convictions and values. I'm not exactly the most vocal or outgoing person, therefore I usually use my art to communicate my beliefs, speak out about injustices and spread awareness of causes that matter a much for me."
