Hi
Emerging young talent
I was born and raised in Sudbury,
Ontario. Canada in 1993. Northern Ontario continues to be my home where I
am currently attending school. I intend on pursuing a career in the
medical field in hopes of joining the forces, but I have no
intention on giving up art.
My
mother, an accomplished animal
portraitist, has greatly influenced my interest in art since a very young
age. It may come as no surprise then, that one could say that I have been
drawing and doodling since I was able to hold a pencil. I love drawing so much
that I work on one or more portraits almost each and every day. It was not
until about age 10 that I became serious about art and I now have my online
portfolio (www.valerietheriault.com)
where visitors can view and read about my world of art. I have recently starting
accepting commissions for people portraits of babies, children, family and
friends, to name a few.
My favorite subjects include
the human face, intricate attires, medieval and fantasy art which almost always
includes the human form as the main subject. I currently prefer to draw using
only graphite/charcoal pencils (traditional art) and a digital pen and tablet
using my computer (digital art). Pastimes include reading, website design and
programming, sports and hanging out with my friends.
