Our Featured Artists
Julia Saint Amour
Tattoo ArtistJulia Saint Amour is a tattooist and freelance artist based out of Toronto. Julia’s work is an escapist fantasy painted in neon and plastered with cotton candy. Her usage of bright fluorescent colour schemes juxtaposed with gritty, provocative subject matter creates a strong dichotomy present throughout all her work. She touches upon themes of mental illness, sexual expression and the influence of pop culture.
“The thing I love most about art is the escape”

“Within the arts, everyone is so different and that's what makes it creative. With inspiration comes creativity.”
Jan Lucas
Singer Jan is a 21-year-old economics major who loves music, corgis, a good cup of coffee, and shooting her friends on film. Inspired by her sister, Jan used creating as an outlet of expression throughout her life; whether it be through writing songs, making cute polymer clay charms, modelling in fashion shows, performing, etc. This past year, Jan has been focusing on her identity- as an artist, a student, and a human- through her art.
“I think art's ability to connect people is one of the most pure forms of humanity.”
Flora Tang
Drag ArtistFlora works as a development coordinator for a GTA-based real estate developer. Throughout her time at school, she developed an interest in photographing architecture. This grew into photographing streetscapes and portraits over the years. Pursuing this interest connected her with a variety of folks and since then, her appreciation for all art forms has expanded. It’s also given her the courage to try experiment as an artist, and thus, Jack Shit was born.
“My favourite thing about art is that there are no limits to your creations. And if you're told differently, tell them you're an artist.”
