Although currently making her life in the "beach" neighbourhood of Toronto, Tanya is originally born in Montréal, Québec. Educated in Applied Arts, Tanya has worked as an Art Director and Graphic Designer for over 15 years. After reintroducing herself to fine arts through classes at the AGO and the Toronto School of Art over 6 years ago, her passion for painting was re-ignited. After 2 years of training, she is currently showing and working at a variety of galleries and exhibitions. Today, Tanya is able to fully pursue her desire of being a full-time artist. With a studio on Carlaw Avenue, in the heart of the East End art scene, she now is able to explore and build upon her visions and dreams in oil and wax.
