What if...?

Many people dislike this question. Asking retrospectively about your path not taken is more about nostalgia or rationalization than truth. But when asked in the face of opportunity, it becomes life, the creator of worlds. When wielded correctly, it slays the doubters and shields the dreamer

What if King Kong didn't want to fight but just wanted to head home? What if animals adopted our technology and pushed back? What if you could read a book from a different character's perspective? What if one's potential rather than circumstance defined their beauty?

So I ask "What If...?" Come what may.

Collin Douma

Through life’s coincidences, Collin Douma was born and raised near Woodstock, Ontario, Canada, but now lives and works near Woodstock, New York. He has exhibited work in both Woodstocks, across the US and Canada, as well as in the Netherlands, Belgium, and France. His career spans fine art, illustration, animation, digital art, mixed media, and beyond.

Like most, Collin started drawing as soon as he could lift a crayon, but he never stopped. He studied traditional animation at Algonquin College in Ottawa, Canada. He lived in Toronto for over a decade, married, had a son, and established a career in Advertising. His family moved to Brooklyn, New York, in 2011 and finally settled in Boiceville, NY, in 2017, where he lives and works today.
