—Shayla Spalding Studio—

welcome to my studio

My name is Shayla Spalding, and I'm an Ontario artist who specializes in live wedding paintings and acrylic illustrations. I have an educational background in landscape architecture and community design, and a passion for sharing the design process with others.

My painting style incorporates loose brushstrokes and sparkling lighting effects. I draw inspiration from otherworldly colour palettes I find in the natural landscape. Some of my favourite muses include historical architecture and interesting animals I've come across.
