Flamingos (2019) Painting by Vera Saiko

Vera Saiko is a contemporary Canadian artist. The artist enjoys creating paintings and drawings of people, landscapes, and flowers. The classic Russian drawing school is clearly visible in her charcoal and pastel drawings. But her paintings clearly stray from traditionalism. She blends vibrant hues with Northern minimalism, drawing inspiration from the Group of Seven and the majesty of the Canadian Shield. She precisely measures the relationship between color and the shape and size of the medium. 

Vera Saiko teaches at world renowned Sheridan College, where she graduated at Fine Arts and Design programs, after having received formal drawing education in Russia and Ukraine. She is a member of the Ontario Society of Artists, Mississauga Art Society and Visual Arts Mississauga. Her works are in private collections in the USA, Canada, China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia, Russia, and Ukraine. Saiko's paintings are on display in galleries in Toronto, Shanghai, Ningbo, and Shenzhen.
