Benjamin Johnmark is a Nigerian visual artist based in Canada whose work bridges painting, drawing, and 3D animation/visualization. He is the founder of I Can Draw Art Studio in Ottawa and the creative lead of I Can Draw Africa, a collective of over 100 young Black artists from across the continent.

His current project, Faces and Places: We All Belong, celebrates cultural diversity in Canada and is also his Guinness World Record attempt to create the largest collage. His long-term vision is to establish the I Can Draw Institute for The Arts in Nigeria, training the next generation of African animators and visual storytellers.

I have been creating artwork for as long as I can remember. I produced work for myself for pure enjoyment and eventually this turned into commission work for others.
A great deal of my commission work is portraiture and architectural drawings, however, I derive great pleasure and relaxation by creating uniform, colourful patterned pieces.
My mediums of choice are acrylic, graphite and pen and ink.
I currently teach Art at St. Lawrence Academy as well as teach an adult art class once a week.
I also run a successful summer art program for children.
Art is what I do! If I go missing, just look in my studio. I will probably be there.

Ottawa based, Mexico made. Lifelong painter working mainly in acrylic across murals and canvas. My art is about expression, story, and presence. Passionate about community, diversity, and human rights. Full time non profit worker, full time artist mindset.

Suzannah, a two-time Art Battle City Championship finalist, has been a Paint Nite instructor since 2015. She is a former portrait artist with a BFA who stepped away from commissions to fall back in love with painting under pressure. Her work ranges from literal to expressive, cerebral to emotional—always reflecting the moment she's in.
