About Sasha
Sasha Hill is a First Nations artist based in Katarokwi/Kingston. She graduated from Sheridan College’s Media Arts programs in 2015 with a focus on cinematography. With no formal art training she finds inspiration and studies drawing, anatomy, and painting online through workshops and classes. She learned technical oil painting skills from master local artist Joanne Gervais for several years before venturing off in search of her own style. With a keen sense of emotion Sasha uses paint to express wistful, playful, sometimes somber or pensive expressions on her characters. Depicting primarily faces of people or animals she is interested in conveying a moment part of a larger story. As a full time web designer and emerging artist Sasha spends her time outside of work drawing, studying art, and painting. Looking to expand her art knowledge and studio practice she attends life drawing classes, and is constantly pushing her skills studying art on her own.
