About

Vanessa Maver is a Melbourne-based artist and designer. Inspired by nature, particularly botanicals and the beauty of everyday life, her paintings are an exploration of colour, shape and light. Capturing quiet, reflective moments and weaving together memories, experience and a sense of place, through her still life, abstracts and interior scenes.

Through her art and creative workshops, Vanessa shares her love of creativity with others, encouraging people to slow down, connect with their surroundings, and discover the simple joy of making. Her goal is to create a welcoming space where creativity can flourish, and where others can find their own sense of peace and inspiration.

Vanessa recently hosted her own art show with fellow artists Bree Morrison and Amy Compton at The Green Space in Mentone and has exhibited in many group shows around Australia.
