Miguel Freitas was born in Lisbon, Portugal and moved to Toronto, Canada in his early teens where he currently resides.
He entered into the creative world as a photographer while earning his graphic arts degree, then becoming an illustrator which eventually lead him to positions as an art director for companies in both Canada and Europe.
Longing for creative freedom, in 2004, he ventured on his own and has been painting full-time ever since.
In his own unique style, Freitas lays down bold colours along with intentional thick brushstrokes that create a multi-layered surface that appears sculpted creating a unique 3D effect.
Freitas has exhibited internationally in solo and group exhibitions and is represented by prominent galleries throughout North America.
