Sapphorica Creations- Artist Statements/ Bio

Kellee Roque is an expressionist Artist drawn to texture, shadow, and asymmetry.

Earlier works consisted of pop art inspired acrylic paintings with hints of Warhol which metamorphosed into Linocut printmaking, reminiscent of medieval woodcuts, as her primary medium as of late.

Themes of historic architecture, places of heritage and influences of vintage Art and Design from a bygone era are pronounced in her works.

Gemma Roque is a trained Artist in the worlds of both Fine Art and Graphic Design.

Drawn to Art Nouveau and vintage Graphic Art forms and influenced by Artists such as Da Vinci and Giger, her style is precise yet adventurous, clean, yet dark.

From earlier works in pencil, charcoal, and acrylic to more recent expressions in illustrated design, ink and watercolor, Gemma is flexible with mediums while maintaining a pronounced Artistic voice and style.

Currently, Gemma and her life and business partner, Kellee, own Sapphorica Creations in Surrey British Columbia where they create hand-crafted and sustainable unique artistic expressions for their women-centric Canadian Art Card business.
