Kaeli is a Toronto-based artist specializing in graphite and charcoal portraiture. Her work focuses on women, blending the timeless techniques of academic realism with contemporary feminine subjects. Each drawing represents not only the subject’s likeness, but her unique experience and internal world - a fleeting moment, a quiet smile, deep introspection - the nuance and complexity of emotion that can only be captured in a face. Kaeli aims to portray the beauty and depth of contemporary women by merging classic realist techniques with thoughtful compositions and the expressive qualities of the media used.
