Sabrina, also known as Breetwo, is an illustrator born and raised in the North York area. Her work often explores the intersectionality of growing up with both Eastern and Western influences. Her style is often narrative and textural, filled with colour and patterns. As an illustrator who grew up with OCD, she uses fantasy and folk as metaphors to process what is real. She has a love for nature and science and incorporates flora and fauna into most if not all of her work.

Her work in community arts started in illustrating stories written by young students through her work at Story Planet, a nonprofit focusing on creative writing for children. She has expanded and learned a massive love for public art; in particular she believes that art should reflect the communities it serves, embodying what is important and a point of pride to them.

I’m Sara, a painter and illustrator with a passion for storytelling. I’ve been drawing since I was a kid and have a Master’s in Illustration along with degrees in Graphic Design and Painting. Over the years, I’ve worked with publishers and companies worldwide, including the BBC and Timas Cocuk, and participated in exhibitions like the Cow Festival 2021.

Since moving to Canada, I’ve joined events like TOAF #63 and painted murals for StreetArtToronto and Bell Box. I love creating illustrations, especially for children’s books and fantasy stories, and every project feels like the start of something new and exciting.
