Educator & Artist

 

As a young child, Ashley Campaña has always been drawn to many different facets of the arts. This passion drove her to teach and help others find their inspiration. With that, she received a Thesis Directed Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts at the Ontario College of Art and Design with a major in Drawing and Painting and minor in Social Science. Along with that, she graduated from Brock University with a Bachelor's of Education in Junior and Intermediate divisions. She is an Ontario Certified Teacher, pursuing Additional Qualifications in Special Education and becoming an Art Specialist for the school board.

 

Aside from advancing her career in education, Ashley has always had a passion for makeup artistry. She has 7 years and counting teaching makeup classes to include special effects makeup, stage makeup, bridal and evening makeup. This passion for makeup stemmed from her fine art background as she specializes in portraiture along with figure painting. Her artwork ranges from traditional to contemporary paintings.

 

"The outcome of my work is to spark emotion or feeling within my audience by using patterns, optical illusions, and layering. My work is a reflection of myself.”
