Vera's World

I am a 23 year old amateur illustrator and architect-in-progress. I'm currently living and working in Toronto, but I'm very much influenced by my travels and experiences abroad.

I dream of drawing for a living but often wonder what that actually means. For now, my drawings serve as a release.

Through my drawings, I focus on depicting emotions and experiences in a way that everyone can connect with. The characters I draw are sometimes depictions of myself, but often they are combinations of the people I love and the people I encounter in my daily life.

I often explore sadness and feelings of sadness through my drawings, as a way to safely unpack the layers that make up the darkness that envelops us when we are sad. My aim is to create art that is honest and hopeful in a way that reveals raw emotion and helps others to better understand themselves.
