About the artist
Hi! My name is Vanessa and I'm professional illustrator and surface designer from Ontario, Canada. It's very nice to meet you!
​
I play with Procreate to create crazy realistic watercolor designs for your products. My designs are soft and feminine. I love pink!
​
I'm currently looking for licensing and freelancing opportunities with companies of all sizes. I'm particularly interested in stationery and greeting cards, and love partnering with sustainable and eco-friendly companies most of all.
​
Clients
American Greetings, TJX, Hobby Lobby, RSVP, Design Design, Scholastic, Jean Marie Creations, Lindy Bowman Co and more.
A varied artistic background
I've been a full-time professional artist since 2015 and have worked in a few different industries.
​
-
I studied fine arts and traditional animation
-
I was a 2D artist in a mobile games studio
-
I illustrated books with publishers worldwide as a freelance children's book illustrator
​
Since 2021, I've turned my attention to surface design and feel that I have finally found my true passion!
I'm constantly surprised how much my previous experiences in other industries help me today in the surface design world.
​
I bring my hand-painted style from fine arts, my advanced technical and computer skills from animation and games, and my storytelling and character design skills from the picture book world.
​
These experiences have made me a well-rounded and highly proficient illustrator, ready to tackle any challenge.
