The Artist

Brooklyn McDougall is a Team Canada long track speed skater and 2022 Olympian from Calgary, Alberta. When she is not training, Brooklyn is a watercolour, gouache, mixed media and digital artist. 

Art has always been a large part of Brooklyn's life, and she is grateful to have grown up surrounded by amazing artists that have inspired her to create. Brooklyn's grandfather was a woodcarver, while her grandmother was a multimedia artist. Both of them encouraged Brooklyn to pursue art throughout grade school, including Advanced Placement art in high school.

Throughout university, Brooklyn was very busy and took time away from art to focus on her BSc in Biology. Since graduating, art has become an integral part of Brooklyn's life, and a great balance for speed skating.

Brooklyn has been commissioned by the Olympic Museum for the Paris 2024 Arts & Culture exhibit that will display her art during the 2024 Olympic Summer Games in Paris. This project will enhance the creative voice of Olympians and promote the Olympic values. For more information on Brooklyn's project, The Trailblazers, check out this page.
