Hey there, welcome to our website! We are two artists based out of Halifax, NS, Canada. We hope you enjoy our artwork, and would like to share a little bit about who we are and why we create what we do!
Sarah Patzelt
Hi there! My name is Sarah Patzelt. My life has always been full of all kinds of art and creativity; I remember writing poems and painting pictures from a very young age. After completing my degree in women's and gender studies, I shifted my focus towards visual arts. With endless artistic inspiration from Willson, I practiced and dedicated more and more time to my art.
While travelling in Costa Rica with Willson September 2019, I discovered my love for mandalas. These circular patterns consumed my thoughts and I felt a desire to recreate mandala pieces of my own. Each time I create a new mandala or other artwork I see my inner answers slowly become uncovered. I welcome you to join me on my journey and encourage you to start a journey of your own, whatever that may entail.
My aim is to make my art as expressive as possible. Each piece has a story to tell. Spend some time with them, see what they reveal to you.

Willson
My name is Matthew Willson, however I tend to go by Willson. I began professionally creating art in 2016 with strong influences from tattooing, especially the Japanese counter culture and imagery that stems from there.
What really drives my artwork is a passion for understanding. I strive to understand subjects through creating my own artistic representations of them. Be it learning how a flower grows by painting it's pedals; or uncovering a person's Disney obsession while painting their tattoos in a portrait.
Outside of my artwork I spend much of my time in the forest, with my friends, and/or traveling with Sarah to uncover new secrets and adventures!
