Meet Me in Gastown by Olivia in Vancouver

After completing my graphic design diploma in 2015, I began to develop my illustration skills and style. I quickly acquired a love for painting, which in turn, eventually allowed her to go large scale and design public murals and art for commercial projects. I am a visual artist who works across a multitude of mediums such as, murals, paintings and digital illustrations. I take inspiration from youth iconography, mythic narrative, pop art, and the styles and objects of a range of subcultures—including tattooing, still life, and romanticism. I incorporate graphic illustrative components, specific colour palettes and intricate line work to convey a feeling of cultural nostalgia and relevance. The versatility of my style shines through in its ability to transition between highly detailed compositions and more minimalistic designs, adapting to the demands of each unique project. Notably, my designs are crafted to resonate with a broad audience, striking a balance that makes it suitable for all age groups.
