I paint because I love it, pure and simple. I love the chaos and the physical demands of executing my ideas into tangible works. Above all else, I love the connections I am able to create with people through my work.
— Genna Draper

With a method that is overtly physical, and her extensive understanding and use of diverse materials, Genna Draper creates mixed media paintings with varying degrees of representation, provoking curiosity and deeper exploration between the layers. Striking for their intriguing textures and desirable palettes, Draper presents work that is dynamic and cohesive on conclusion yet leaves room for the viewer to explore the decisions and emotional responses of every mark made. 

Genna Draper is a Canadian artist from Ottawa, Ontario, living and working in Seattle Washington. With over 25 years in the business of art, she has created work for both commercial and residential clients. Her work can be found in collections across North America, including Ottawa, Montreal, Toronto, Calgary, Seattle, Portland, Kansas City, Miami, Los Angeles and San Francisco.
