About

I'm Olivia, a surrealist artist creating dreamlike worlds through ink and acrylic paintings in Toronto. My journey from Russia to Canada, combined with my background in TV and film design, influences my unique artistic perspective.

My work explores the intersection of reality and imagination, drawing from shared human experiences to create mysterious, figurative pieces that invite viewers into a contemplative head space. Each artwork tells a story through intricate linework and delicate details, blurring the lines between the familiar and the fantastical.

With over a decade of experience in visual storytelling, my art speaks to those who appreciate a thoughtful, slightly dark aesthetic and find beauty in the unexpected. My pieces often feature dreamy elements that encourage viewers to pause and reflect on their own stories.

When I'm not creating in my studio, I'm usually spending time with my two cats or working on illustrations for film and publishing projects.

For industry and business clients, my commercial portfolio is available at olivia-sementsova.ca.
