Artist Bio

Born and raised in British Columbia, Sophia began traditional painting methods at 10 years old in watercolor and acrylic. She graduated with her BFA in Studio Arts from Concordia University in Montréal in 2014, where she discovered her love of oil painting. In 2015 she moved to the mountains near Santa Fe, New Mexico. Here her practice evolved onto the stage with The 3 Painters, doing live performance painting. Sophia has helped design & perform in corporate shows from Tanzania to Panama & around the US. She also performs with the touring show Artrageous, which combines all of the arts in a one-of-a-kind immersive theatrical production. She has performed for thousands of people around the world, from half-time shows in the NBA to Carnegie Hall in West Virginia.

Sophia has won multiple awards for her art and has sold and shown work internationally. When she is not painting or drawing, she is studying music and is a multi-instrumentalist.
