Ivy
	2 min gestures                             Hilde Lambrechts

Ivy, a former student of Canterbury HS (visual arts) and Ottawa University (fine arts, 2 yrs) is an artist in body and soul. She materializes her need to express herself through mixed media, writing, poetry performance and dance. Inspired by well-known Ottawa life model, Dan T., she started modeling in August 2010 after finishing the model training course at the Ottawa School of Art.

Her commitment as a life model is truly contagious. She performs with passion. Her improvised short poses are daring, creative and acrobatic, showing remarkable flexibility and variation. Ivy is still building experience in holding long poses (>45 min), but her entire being is dedicated to the pose she needs to hold.

Ivy keeps in shape through yoga and biking. She loves to push her body and take on challenges. After a modeling session she feels thrilled and ecstatic, and so does the artist who has the privilege to work with her.

In short: little bundle of energy, natural body artist, muse.
