Whimsical, Bold, & Playful

Based in the mountain town of Fernie, BC, Van is an oil painter known for her whimsical take on landscapes and figures.

Van began her art journey painting vibrant and playful figures providing a dreamlike, take-me-back-to-that-day kind of feeling. Whimsical in nature, she captures fleeting moments through movement and simple actions, leaving the detailed “real-life” depictions up to the photographers and portrait artists. Her pieces are meant to leave you feeling cheerful and amused, with bright and bold colours.
