B.1989 in Portland Maine, USA
Drawing and painting has provided Bouchard with endless joy and comfort throughout the stages of her life. Her interest in art as a child was encouraged by her aunt whose lifestyle as an artist inspired Bouchard to follow in her footsteps. After experiencing renaissance art and architecture while traveling through Italy at the age of 18, she became particularly interested in rendering the human form, landscapes, and still life. Through the study of classical methods of painting and drawing at the Aristides Atelier in Seattle, she grew a deep love for the study of classic art, of sight and the poetics of creating beautiful timeless art.
Bouchard has won numerous awards for her merits, including first place in the international Artist’s Magazine Competition; portrait/figure category, as well as grand prize over all in 2018. She also won a scholarship award to study at the Florence Academy of Art in Italy, summer program, in 2016.
Bouchard now lives in Silverton Oregon where she paints along side her mentor Ulan Moore. She also teaches classes and workshops throughout the North West
