Nadia Bechirian-Tiseo began her career after completing her Fine Arts degree at Concordia University in Montreal, QC. Since then she has been creating art across all channels of visual communication. Her academic training, versatility in the Old Masters techniques and her ability to combine a variety of contemporary mediums allows her to express herself freely in her artwork.

Her paintings are executed in a purely intuitive process. They begin without any preliminary sketches on a bare canvas where fields of color, structure, and surface effects are used to surpass two-dimensionality. These surface effects are further enhanced by the multiple layering of transparent colors; superimposed, they solicit new impressions with every change of light or angle of view. With skillful and complex methodology Nadia always tackles her paintings with an intellectual vigor suffused with the vitality and power of nature, which seems to be her underlying narrative.

When asked if her creative process is one of improvisation or calculated planning, the Artist quotes Paul Klee:

"Art doesn’t reflect the visible. Art makes visible."

Nadia’s artworks can be seen in galleries and private collections across Canada, and USA.
