Vinessa Redford is an Artist based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada.

Raised in rural northern Alberta, she developed a lifelong love of wildflowers and the untamed landscapes of the boreal forest at an early age. She was deeply influenced by her late grandmother who raised her after the passing of her mother and nurtured her sensitivity to the natural world.

She began her artistic journey through fine art photography, exhibiting in Athens, Hanoi, Melbourne, and New York, before learning to paint in 2021. She shares an intimate look into her creative process on social media under the name @pigmentsandmood.
