About

Rodney Maiato — self-portrait

Thanks for stopping by.

I'm Rodney. I create art and play musical instruments, with a deep appreciation for expression over commercial success.

Born and raised in Montreal, Quebec, I cherish my French cultural roots. I now reside on the west coast, embracing new experiences. From a young age, I was drawn to art and music, receiving guitar lessons in fifth grade that ignited my lifelong passion for music.

Most of the work shown here was created in portable Moleskine sketchbooks — painted and sketched in parks, on ferries, in coffee shops, and anywhere else that caught my eye.
