Vanessa Pineda Fox

Vanessa Pineda Fox was born in Queens, NY, to Colombian parents. She grew up on Long Island and graduated from the School of Visual Arts in NYC, studying under prestigious artist professors, such as Juan González and Richard Wilde. After graduating with a BFA in graphic design, Vanessa enjoyed working in new media until she had her first child. Eventually, wanting to focus more on painting and making things with her hands, she began experimenting with acrylics, collages, and different materials when time allowed.

In 2019 she was awarded Honorable Mention in the Acrylic section at the Dobbs Ferry Women's Club's Beaux Arts Exhibition. Since then, Vanessa has frequently been painting, exploring handwriting as texture, and seeing how the light play is affected using metallics, mattes, and resin. Recent work focuses on acrylics, collages, and resin. Using organic shapes, handwritten messages, and vibrant palettes, Vanessa hopes each art piece offers the viewer an uplifting vibe to help center the soul.
