Hello there,
My name is Aliyah Clarke and I am a recent Graduate of Sheridan's Honour's Bachelor of Illustration Degree. I have a background of teaching traditional visual arts such as life drawing, human anatomy, perspective and traditional painting as a chosen (TA) Professor's Assistant. My professional experience also includes brand development, editorial published works, content marketing and graphic design.
I have a deep passion for art education, history and culture. My current illustrative and tattoo works are inspired by the cultural history and arts of West Africa and South Asia.
Currently, my intention is to explore opportunities within art education, gallery curation, editorial work and freelance illustrative/animated works.
Thank you kindly,
