Danielle Vincent

Danielle Vincent is a fine artist based in Toronto and Oakville who specializes in oil painting. She invites the viewer to create personal narratives and reflect on their thoughts and feelings about transitional periods in her search for certainty and stability in the unknown. With her realistic renderings of familiar domestic spaces, she creates an entrance and exit to the in-between spaces found in contemporary life. In 2024 she graduated with an Honours BFA in Drawing and Painting from OCAD.
