Presentation

Infusing his artistic creations with the spirit of B-movies, Canadian artist Ryan Heshka captivates with his vivid portrayals of dominant pin-up girls, fantastical monsters, and endearing spectral beings, earning him a prominent spot within the Lowbrow art movement.

A native of Manitoba, Heshka spent his formative years in Winnipeg, where he passed the time during the extensive prairie winters by drawing, constructing cardboard metropolises, and making Super 8 films. In 1992, he earned an Interior Design degree from the University of Manitoba but eventually transitioned into the realm of illustration after several years in the field. His illustrious work has graced the pages of prestigious publications such as Vanity Fair, Playboy, Wall Street Journal, Esquire, and the New York Times, and has adorned the covers and interiors of BLAB! Furthermore, his contributions have been recognized by American Illustration and the Society of Illustrators.

Primarily a self-taught talent, Heshka attributes his artistic inspiration to sources like vintage comic books, pulp magazines, typography, electronic music, and natural history, while also acknowledging the influence of his academic background in shaping his meticulous attention to setting, detail, and composition. Heshka's oeuvre has been showcased in exhibitions spanning Canada, the USA, Germany, Italy, and the UK. His comic book, The Mean Girls Club, was published in 2015, followed by its sequel, The Mean Girls Club: Pink Dawn, in 2018. The first monograph dedicated to Heshka's artistic journey—Fatales: The Art of Ryan Heshka—was unveiled in 2017, further solidifying his reputation within the global art community.
