About
Hi Collectors and Appreciators!
My name is Reisha and I am a self-taught artist with a focus on acrylics on canvas.
I am based in Ontario, Canada, but was born and raised in Dominica, a small, English speaking country located in the Eastern Caribbean.
I take pride in displaying the rich fusion of the traditional and modern elements that give Afro-Caribbean culture its distinct flavour, with emphasis and detail on Black hair within my figurative portraits of Black women.
Having been surrounded by nature all my life, [Fun fact: Dominica is also known as the Nature Isle of the Caribbean], my early works were heavily inspired by the rainforests and sunsets of Dominica, as well as the four seasons of Canada.
I gain artistic inspiration from all that I deem beautiful and the things I consider my treasures: nature, people, culture, emotions and the lessons and love that connect us all!
My hope is for my art to serve as a celebration of treasures not only for myself, but for many of you as well.
