About me

I’m Quinn Heinrichs, a Vancouver-based model, artist, and creative director who brings ideas to life through art, fashion, and makeup. With industry-standard training in special effects makeup from Vancouver Film School, I’ve honed my skills in both beauty and transformative makeup. I apply this expertise to all my photo and video shoots, ensuring top-quality results for my clients while maintaining a focus on wellness and authenticity in my creative process.

As a fine artist, I specialize in pointillism portraits of Black pop culture icons, using intricate dot work to capture their essence. I also work with acrylics, where I enjoy experimenting with bold contrasting colors, sparkle, and shine. My art extends to multimedia, incorporating elements like jewelry and hair embellishments to add depth and dimension to my pieces. My work spans mural commissions, portrait requests, and set decoration. As the founder of Color and Sway, I lead a creative agency that fosters collaboration and brings impactful ideas to life through art, fine craftsmanship, and creative direction.
