Abstract art and expressive doodling that helps you exhale.
Hello and welcome to my studio!
My work is bold, unapologetic and rooted in movement - both physical and internal. Every piece carries a pulse, a rhythm, a moment of raw expression captured in colour and form.
The art you will discover here narrates a colourful story, inspired by many influences: from the exciting 80s and 90s eras to the cool hip-hop scene via the statement art on the Berlin Wall.
Positive energy, unquestionable joy and groovy rhythm are at the heart of everything you will see here.
For a long time, I hesitated to call myself an artist. Now, I claim it fully, knowing that creativity isn’t limited to one form. It runs through everything I do - whether I am painting, leading, coaching, or speaking.
Each brushstroke is a conversation, a release, a declaration. My art invites people to see, feel, and respond - without overcomplicating the experience.
My art narrates a colourful story, inspired by my life experiences as a 40+ (yet looking 27!) Black French Caribbean woman living in London for the past 20 years.
I truly believe that art can come from difficult times and still be beautiful. This inspires me a lot.
I also loved watching TV shows like 'Saved by the Bell' and 'Family Matters' when I was young. Those memories make their way into my art, mixing with bright colours and cool designs.

If your brain will not switch off..., if everything feels like too much..., if you are tired, overwhelmed or quietly running on empty - this guide is for you 💜.
Created by me, Vanessa - executive coach, emotional intelligence specialist and part-time artist, who burnt out 4 times and decided there had to be a better way.
This guide ‘Burnout Micro Reset Mini Guide’ will help you calm your overloaded nervous system temporarily in a way that does not involve meditating, doing yoga or drinking chamomile tea.
What you will get inside
▪️ quick EQ tool to name what you are feeling and what it is signalling
▪️ a doodling* micro-reset you can do in 5, 10 minutes or more
*Doodling gives your brain a job so it stops spiralling and it brings you back into the present moment.
It is my fave creative reset to go from tense and overstimulated to clearer mind in a short time so I can focus on what matters.
Give it a try and get your nervous system to feel calmer. Everything will start to feel a little more manageable, I promise.
