Eva was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. She has always had an affinity for art, learning her skills through experimentation and a great deal of practice. Having spent many years working as a CNC Programmer and CAD Operator, she realized the need for creativity in her life and returned to art part-time, painting faux finishes and murals.
In 2011, Eva turned her full attention to her art. Since then, she has won awards for her work, participated in numerous juried shows and exhibitions, volunteered on art show and tour committees as well as juried shows for various art groups in the Greater Toronto Area and York Region. She has clients in Canada, the United States, South America, Great Britain, Australia, and Hungary.
In September 2021, Eva opened up a new studio workshop space and began teaching workshops in pouring techniques and colour theory. She is also working on a perspective drawing/painting course she plans to teach live and also offer to her students as an online learning program.
Eva currently works and teaches from her home studio in Aurora, Ontario, where she continues to create art and learn by exploring different mediums and techniques.
