A graduate of OCAD University, Chapman is known for her spirited and evolving style that captures the energy and essence of her subjects.

Chapman’s latest collection of oil on canvas paintings delves into the complex interplay between color and emotion. "For the past twenty years, my canvases have been a conversation with the world around me," explained Chapman.
Thick impasto strokes create a tactile quality, emphasizing each color's emotional weight. Her intuitive process combines visceral color impacts with modular shapes' structural rigor, drawing the audience into a complex dialogue between form and feeling. The metaphor of neuroanatomy dissection illustrates how Chapman dissects paintings to understand and portray emotions.
