Justin Gedak was born in Langley British Columbia Canada on September, 25th 1982, and grew up in the Fraser Valley and Greater Vancouver.



His series of gothic fantasy digital portrait paintings are themed around the concept of individuals who have gone through times of trouble, and survived to be stronger for it. Characters who've endured the worst of life, but still managed to maintain and enhance their sense of strength, beauty, and honor. Warriors who refuse defeat.

​

Justin currently resides in Greater Vancouver Canada, and has sold his artwork internationally across 24 different countries. His creation process consists of cutting up and piecing together numerous photos, and then painting hundreds of digital paint layers over top--often scratching parts off as he goes--using Corel Painter, Adobe Photoshop, and a Wacom Intuos Pro tablet.
