Artist Bio
Brazen Edwards is a versatile artist that was born in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. She attended high school at the newly developed Victoria School of Performing and Visual Arts then later enrolled in the BA Criminology Program at the University of Alberta and was given special permission to take Art Fundamentals as a component of her degree.
She then went on to pursue a career with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police and relocated to the Okanagan area in 2009. She found the region to be incredibly inspiring and realizing art was her true calling she began devoting herself to that pursuit in 2010 and has been fortunate enough to have her artwork collected internationally.
She now resides in Vancouver, Canada but spends part of the year painting and travelling the world. Along with her studio and exhibition practice, she also provides workshops, painting demonstrations and organizes art events worldwide. Her latest project was an art residency in Bangkok, Thailand.
My Inspiration
My artwork is deeply inspired by my travels around the world. Each place I’ve visited has left a lasting impression, shaping the way I approach colour, texture, and form. Whether it’s the vibrant energy of a bustling medina or the quiet beauty of a remote Asian landscape, I find myself drawn to capturing the emotions and memories of those experiences. Travelling allows me to observe different cultures, landscapes, and stories, and I translate those impressions through rich layers and bold compositions. Each piece becomes a personal narrative — a reflection of moments spent exploring new places, connecting with people, and embracing unfamiliar perspectives. My art is a way of sharing these journeys, inviting others to experience the wonder and inspiration I’ve found across the globe.
