Hello, Art Lovers

I’m Vanessa, an artist based in Melbourne. I create original still life & abstract paintings in my home studio in Strathmore. I am a finalist in the Unearthed Art Prize 2024 for the 2nd year in a row and you can find my art in galleries and homeware stores dotted around Australia. I am obsessed with painting my plants and pottery to create scenes that explore colour, shape and textures. I hope you find something here that makes your space feel like home.

Fell in love with Vanessa's piece immediately and KNEW I had to have it!

    "I purchased 3 small paintings of Vanessa's which adorn the walls of my home office and I regularly get comments of how lovely they look. Then I also purchased 'Shadow Boxes' which brings such a vibrancy to that wall!"
