We are a collection of stories, travelling through time; through words, through paintings and through photographs.

My life philosophy is rooted in kindness, integrity, and embracing the unknown with courage—choosing love and forgiveness even in difficult times, and cherishing every fleeting moment.

Each year, I host a series of mini sessions, donating proceeds to causes that strengthen my community, such as Harbour House in Bridgewater. For several years, I served on the Board of Directors for Hinchinbrook Farms Society, a Canadian Registered Charity that provides therapeutic recreation and riding programs in a peaceful farm setting for children and adults facing mental, physical, or developmental challenges. During my tenure, I personally raised over $300,000 through grant writing and fundraising efforts. I also continuously support a variety of impactful causes, including: One Tree Planted, SHAID, United Way Halifax, Cystic Fibrosis of Canada. These efforts reflect my ongoing commitment to creating positive change.

Hi, I’m Angelina Obritsch, though my friends and family know me as Lina. I call the South Shore home, where I live with my husband, our two daughters, and our lively crew of pets—a cat, some chickens, and a hamster! I’m the editor and publisher of the East Coast Creatives Journal, a print magazine that celebrates local talent.

I’m passionate about uplifting creatives from all walks of life, firmly believing that supporting others is the foundation of strong communities. When I’m not working, you’ll catch me out adventuring with my family, making the most of every moment together.
