Hi! I’m Chelsea, a 26 year old autistic woman who has chosen the life path of being an artist. I graduated Mckenzie college in 2016 and then spent four years teaching art classes, but since then i’ve been taking it easy, and doing art that makes me happy!

Emily has been involved with the festival community for over a decade, and looks forward to creating alongside the many talented artists, creators, and music makers every summer.

High Noon

A painter of the fantastical, I am whisked by deep colors and dreamy atmosphere, dipped in a little melancholy. Of many mediums, acrylic and oil seem to be a great friend to me. I am endlessly trying to disperse my creative expression in a thousand directions, but always find myself coming back to the brush in hand.
I am Canadian made, and from all over within those bounds. Lately, I nest in Moncton, New Brunswick while I apprentice to put ink to skin.

Jessica Dreadful is a multidisciplinary artist. Dynamic, open minded, always exploring and evolving. As I grow, gathering skills in a variety of mediums, with many passions and interests, I know there will always be opportunities to challenge myself. My work is inspired by the natural world and the human form. The themes in my current works are personal and intimate; touching on the erotic, they are intense and dramatic. Inspired by our world, and the human connection to it. I use natural lines, forms and shapes to create harmony and work to create layered pieces that engage the senses, encouraging viewers to touch and to spend the time finding all the hidden nuances within them.
