Randy Ortiz is a Winnipeg‑based Canadian artist and illustrator known for dark, symbolically rich oil paintings and meticulously rendered graphite/charcoal drawings that often explore anxiety, suffering, faith and the uncanny.
Originally recognized for highly detailed poster and print work for films like “Aliens,” “The Conjuring” and “The Road,” he has increasingly shifted toward fine‑art oil painting on canvas, wood and aluminum panels, showing with Copro Gallery and at LA Art Show while selling originals and offering payment plans directly via social channels. Ortiz describes his process as a therapeutic “purging of negativity,” moving from pen‑and‑ink and digital into traditional media to build dense, textured images with titles like “Fear Is Your Only God,” “Dead Hands Dig Deep,” “A Lingering Scent of Divinity” and “What Purpose Did My Suffering Serve?” that balance realism with surreal, often disturbing content.
