‘Bloom’ by Vanessa Lemen

Vanessa Lemen is a visual artist based in California with works exhibited and in private collections internationally.

Vanessa also writes monthly columns for Muddy Colors, and is an educator who mentors privately, teaches classes online, and instructs at workshops across the US, with recent work earning The Chesley Award and other awards in Infected By Art, a Spectrum Award nomination, and Art Renewal Center’s ARC Salon.
