Ash Welwood (b. 1985) is a contemporary visual artist from Winnipeg, Canada. Her practice spans painting, mixed media, and digital collage, blurring the boundaries between feeling and form through themes of memory, fantasy, grief, and hope. Inspired by wild nature and embedded with symbolism, the work shifts between abstraction and landscape, creating a dialogue between human experience and the emotional perspective of the natural world. Through the somatic act of art-making— often paired with music— her process unfolds in layered mixed media, accumulating over time to form compositions that balance lightness and dark melancholy. At its heart, her art embraces creative freedom as a form of resistance and an opening for connection.

Ash is also the founder of Wondrous Being, a mind-body studio integrating therapeutic art and mindful movement to support healing, self-discovery, and holistic health.
