Born in Amsterdam in 1969, Vanessa Jongebloet was trained as a decorative painter and worked doing faux marble- and wood finishing in the beautiful ancient canal houses of Amsterdam, while exploring in her own paintings new ways to paint and express her vision of the world.
Today she has three main series: her quixotic landscapes, in oil on canvas, and her impossibly realistic oil paint & resin pieces; tree dimensional mineral-shaped canvasses, representing organic structures, which she sees as the ‘Structures of Life’
And her portraits, realistic bigger-than-life sized portraits in oil amongst witch a series called ‘Heroes of our time’, about people who fight for human rights.
