About
Artist’s Biography

“Artistic expression has always been part of my life since as far back as I can remember. I was formally trained as a printmaker at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ontario, graduating with a BFA, and have continued to work in a variety of mediums. For me, art is a reflection of the artist and their experiences in the world that surrounds them. My aim is to produce art that reflects my own experiences and that has a deeper meaning for myself. Hopefully each piece will also connect with a deeper meaning for others.”
Lasha’s oil paintings, watercolours, ceramics and mosaics are found in private and corporate collections throughout Canada, the United States and Europe.
