Eddie Li

Eddie Li is a 23-year old artist with Autism Spectrum Disorder who lives in Toronto. He has studied art under his teacher/mentor Julie McMeekin Director of ArteMbassy Gallery School since he was in middle school. As he finds language challenging, abstract expressionist art is his way of communicating his ideas and emotions. His work is inspired by his passions in nature, mythical creatures and the world as he sees it. The beauty of his work emerges from his spontaneous response to colour, texture and the painted surface - pure and unaltered by preconceived ideas. He works intuitively and responds in the moment. His current focus is on fluid art which allows him to indulge in his love of vibrant colours. The acrylic paints are poured on canvas and they flow and blend through different techniques. The joyful flow of colours tell their own story to each person who views them. Eddie has participated in public art shows such as Toronto Outdoor Art Fair, Riverdale Art Walk, Artwalk in the Square, Art in the Park Oakville and regularly conducts fluid art workshops with Autism Ontario.
