An artist's journey from sketching to photography to framing and fine art

WORDS BY ERIN SLOBODIAN

Jadeite

The perspective from Wei Wong’s camera lens often zooms in on beautiful aspects of life that others might walk past without noticing. He has lovely photos of colourful pebbles beneath rippling water, city skylines and Canadian landscapes. His passion for highlighting vibrant colours has inspired the transformation of his images onto canvas, glass, metal and other media.

The Malaysian-born artist began his career with drawing, sketching and painting but shifted to photography in the early 2000s. Wong is the owner of fine art and framing company Vestate in Edmonton. www.w2gallery.com
