Alyssa is a painter and mixed media artist who lives and works in Hamilton. She studied illustration at OCAD University and Seneca College as well as Visual and Digital Art at Humber College. She works with these specific mediums because they add texture within her work that encourage viewers to physically want to touch when gazing at her work. It gives them the opportunity to connect with her pieces on a whole new level.
