About the Artist
Ben was born and raised in the Laurentians of Quebec and have been living in Ottawa since 2025. He has always loved drawing and sculpting animals since he was an infant. He likes to paint with acrylics and also mixes plaster, ink and watercolours into his artwork. His work is inspired by the artworks by Robert Bateman, Wallace Edwards and Dr. Seuss. He describes his artistic motivations: “I want people to love animals and care about them and take care of the earth. Animals are important. They deserve to live and be happy with their families. I make art because I need to”
