Vanessa is an artist, and art teacher and has been creating and sharing her love of art, colour and creativity for many years through mixed media art teachings through workshops and private classes. In this time, she has been able to share her passion for exploration, experimentation, and upcycling materials in her teachings and in her own artwork and designs. Knowing she is a part of the creative journey, growth, and experience of her students of all ages in creating their own styles, and successes through their artworks is her greatest satisfaction. Her students are kept engaged and motivated through the encouragement of fun, imagination, and experimentation by the magic of interactive and tactile learning.

In her years of experience teaching, Vanessa has had the pleasure to see children and adults grow within their art experiences through social, interactive learning, self-motivation, and success.

Vanessa’s own artworks and style are inspired by the sea and use a mixture of watercolor, acrylics, and inks to various tactile mediums, and objects in creating her art pieces. Her love of colour and nature, capturing the colour and the essence of the subject to create the illusion of movement and space using rich pigments is her passion. Vanessa has exhibited and entered art competitions across Sydney, Wollongong to South Coast and has her artworks displayed in the UK, various Hotel foyers to various offices across Sydney.
