Isabelle Halmos

Isabelle Halmos is a 2021 graduate of Drawing and Painting from OCAD University, completing her Bachelor degree in Fine Arts in Toronto where she was born and raised. She is aiming to become a practicing visual artist, and eventually work as an art restorer and conservationist for private and public art collections.

Her attention to detail gained from years of photorealistic commissioned sketch work is apparent as she turns photographs and live subjects into drawings or paintings. Her current work focuses on issues of body and gender as well as sexual assault/harassment which she achieves through paintings and installation work. Her art is mostly figurative, combining her hyper-realism with abstract principles.
