Artist Tamara El-Farr

“My name is Tamara and I love to create. Born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario, I am a self-taught artist with a passion for painting and mixed media arts. At an early age, I began to experiment with art, using whatever I could find to create. In my teens, I would take photographs of landscapes and paint the images on canvas.

As my interest in art progressed through university, I became drawn to creating large pieces of abstract art that included a variety of textured gel mediums and recycled materials as painting tools. 

I find inspiration in the natural world around me and often incorporate elements of nature into my artwork. My love for the outdoors is reflected in the vibrant colors and bold textures used in my pieces.

My artistic style is characterized by large, abstract paintings that incorporate a variety of textured mediums, including gels, modeling paste, plaster, gold leaf and granular acrylic solids. My artwork is a reflection of my unique perspective on life and the world around us.

I have recently been exploring the use of epoxy resin in my artworks. This medium has opened up new possibilities for creating depth and texture in pieces, bringing an extra dynamic to the metallics infused into my custom colour palettes. 

I enjoy experimenting with different techniques to create stunning and one-of-a-kind artworks. 

My collections have been exhibited in several local shops and have been well received by collectors and art enthusiasts alike. I continue to push myself to explore new techniques and mediums to bring my visions to life on the canvas.

Thank you for taking the time to stop by my website. 

I hope you enjoy my art and find joy as you scroll through my collections.”
