Snaige Sileika is a Toronto artist of Lithuanian descent. She studied printmaking at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris and has had solo exhibitions of her paintings and prints in Canada and abroad.  Her work is also included in numerous corporate collections.

Snaige shares her most recent work which explores the "fragility of life." She describes with great detail the process of her work, from the fluid movements of her ink and brush sketches to the completion of her painted images on paper. Her smooth and instinctual brush movements capture the essence of a small plant by the waters of her remote cabin retreat.
