Vanessa Hajje is a mixed media artist .  She approaches collage intuitively , letting the materials guide the composition. She is  drawn to the beauty of fragments—discarded images, torn textures, and overlooked materials that come together to form something entirely new. Her  work is an exploration of layering, contrast, and storytelling, often blending vintage ephemera with contemporary elements to create pieces that feel both nostalgic and fresh. Vanessa loves to teach in a non dogmatic, playful manner encouraging experimentation and confidence in exploring oneself through art. 

The cost of the class is $75.00. Supplies are included.
