Visual Art – Toronto

b. Toronto, 1985. Audrey Lawson received her BFA from Concordia University (2007), AAS from Parsons School of Design (2012) and studied at Slade School of Art in London, UK (2016). She graduated on Dean’s List from Parsons and was a finalist in the Toronto Urban Film Festival (2008) for a short animation she wrote and illustrated. In 2013, Audrey co-created RuleByArt, an online art experiment making her and her partner’s digitized artwork available for purchase and collaboration to artists and designers across the globe. After working in graphic design for a number of years Audrey missed the tactility of art making. In the last three years, she is happy to say that she has returned her attention to her studio practice of painting on canvas. Audrey has had a number of exhibitions in this time and her paintings are in collections across Canada and the UK. Over these three years Audrey has also discovered a passion for art education, which has led her to explore various paths in this direction to learn more about the field and gain valuable experience.
