About the artist

Mandy Boursicot has been a professional artist since 1999 after graduating from Emily Carr University. During her career, Mandy has received national and international recognition, including the British Columbia Arts Council Award in 2003.

Mandy spent four years in Florence, Italy, at the renowned Angel Academy of Art, mastering the rigours of the Academic method, where she became the principal drawing instructor.

After her return to Vancouver in 2012, Mandy became a leader in the Classical Realism movement and practices and teaches in her private atelier, passing on her knowledge and skill, in the time-honoured tradition of 19th-century ateliers.

The complete list of exhibitions, awards, and collections is included in Mandy's About page.
