Sobo Artz

Award Winner: Art Comes Alive 2023, 2022, ADC Fine Art, Cincinnati, Ohio USA

b. Georgetown, Guyana, South America
Lives and works in Toronto, Canada

As a child, Sobo lived steps from the famous Sea Wall in South America. When she was in grade school, her family moved to Toronto, Ontario. She loved drawing and painting and dreamed of becoming a professional artist.

Throughout high school Sobo flourished in the visual arts courses and volunteered at the Art Gallery of Ontario. Being in close proximity to these fantastic works of art was very inspiring to her. When in the presence of a Rothko, Diebenkorn, De Kooning, or a Frankenthaler work, Sobo felt that she could travel to a zone where there would be infinite possibilities.

She studied Business Management at college and worked in the financial sector. Eventually, Sobo wound up on a path that led her back to the arts.

From a chance meeting, she became a professional recording engineer and songwriter. Sobo has since co-written songs with an Award Winning Music Producer that have charted in both Canada and the U.S.

Some of these songs have been featured on hit television shows worldwide including "America's Next Top Model"(ABC), "NUMB3RS" (CBS), "My Super Sweet Sixteen" (Mtv)...
