Stained Glass Art inspired by the beauty of nature: window panels, lamps, and garden art, such as stepping stones.

Vanessa embarked on her artistic journey at the age of 14, immersing herself in the dynamic world of art. Now in her early 20s, Vanessa has already achieved remarkable milestones. From working at a museum and teaching children's art classes to participating in numerous group exhibitions, her artistic talent knows no bounds.

Drawing inspiration from the motifs of women, nature, and the profound concept of death, Vanessa's art explores the intricate interplay between these themes. She captures the essence of femininity, celebrating the diverse forms and empowering spirit of women. Nature serves as her muse, as she skillfully portrays its raw beauty and the fragile balance between humanity and the natural world. Additionally, Vanessa fearlessly delves into the enigmatic realm of death, contemplating its mysteries and provoking introspection through her thought-provoking artworks.

Within the walls of her studio, 9 Feet Under, Vanessa fearlessly explores the realms of collage, digital painting, and a diverse range of mediums. Her captivating artistry not only reflects her lifelong dedication and creative spirit but also invites viewers to contemplate the themes that shape her artistic vision.
