WHAT IS YOUR NAME AND WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
My name is Jenavieve Louie and I’m from Vancouver, BC.
WHAT ARE THE MEDIUMS OF ART THAT YOU SPECIALIZE IN, OR FEEL
LIKE BEST EXEMPLIFY YOU?
I specialize in oil painting portraits.
HOW WAS YOUR UPBRINGING AND CAN YOU REMEMBER IF WHETHER OR NOT
THE ARTS PLAYED A ROLE IN IT? IF SO, HOW BIG?
Art played a very big role in my upbringing. I remember in
preschool, whenever we would have to draw something, all the kids
would ask if I could draw for them because I was so good at it. I
loved drawing and painting so I was happy to do their work for
them. After that, my mom enrolled me in several different art
classes so that I could learn all the different mediums. By the
time I was 10 or 11 I had done classes in painting, drawing,
sewing, graphic design, videography, and ceramics. So I was a
pretty well rounded artist from a young age.
