Helen Baker is a Canadian abstract painter living in Kingston, Ontario.

She has an affinity for vibrant colours and long flowing lines. Helen is also inspired by the effect of stained glass, as it combines the interplay between colour and light. She also often combines both acrylic and oil paints on the same canvas, as she enjoys how fusing both mediums creates a multidimensional effect. Helen is also a local activist that aims to raise awareness about mental illness by donating 10% of her painting sales to the Kingston Defeat Depression campaign, a program that raises funds for mental health services in Helen’s community.


After Helen finished her degree at Queen’s University (B.A. Hons 2009), she was diagnosed with depression. Since then, she has learned to channel the suffering into her art.

Nowadays, Helen paints by a window with lots of sunlight and music. When not painting, she loves spending time with her two dogs, Molly and Talullah, as well as swimming in Lake Ontario.
