At the heart of River & Colour is the belief that the world we live in is profoundly beautiful. But it is so easy to ignore this beauty in the rush of life. River & Colour is about slowing down to remember and treasure your beautiful moments.
Originally trained in oil painting (contemporary visual arts) in New Zealand, Vanessa is now based in Sydney, Australia. She finds inspiration in the beauty of nature and light. Artistically, she is drawn to the grounded compositions of Morandi and the tonal colours of Monet.
River & Colour was founded in April 2020 as a way for Vanessa to reconnect with her passion for painting beautiful moments. She finds joy in discovering what experiences have made her collectors who they uniquely are and capturing the emotions of those moments in her art.
