"Icarus and Daedalus" Painting

I’m Vikesh Tuli a Canadian artist based in Edmonton. Born in India, I moved to Canada at the age of 44 with my wife and two children. The journey was bittersweet — leaving behind the vibrant colors and culture of India while embracing the opportunities and experiences of a new country. Today, I works part-time as a professional artist from my home studio in Edmonton, Alberta. My artwork is showcased on social media platforms such as Facebook and Instagram, where my paintings are appreciated by art lovers from around the world. From an early age, art held a special place in my heart. As a child, I was deeply fascinated by colors, nature, and wildlife. I fondly remembers walking to school with my father and admiring beautiful birds such as peacocks. Their vibrant feathers inspired my imagination and sparked my lifelong connection with colour and creativity. I credits my father as one of the greatest influences in my artistic journey. Through childhood experiences and close observation of nature, animals, and everyday life, I developed a strong artistic foundation. During my school years, I created paintings and drawings using watercolors, gradually nurturing a style rooted in emotion, nature, and imagination. My artwork today continues to reflect love for nature, animals, and the sacred presence of trees, which remain a powerful source of inspiration in my creative process. Working primarily with acrylics, I creates original paintings that blend vibrant color, texture, and personal expression. In addition to original works, I also offer limited-edition canvas prints produced on premium-quality materials, allowing collectors to enjoy my artwork in a timeless and elegant form.
