Vanessa Foley is a professional bird artist based in the North of England. She regularly shows her work in notable galleries in the UK and America, has work in private collections worldwide and is a member of The VACVVM, an international cult of illustration co-founded by Aaron Horkey & Mitch Putnam.

In addition to Gallery and Commission work she releases collections of original work online twice yearly, Spring and Autumn. As these affordable pieces tend to sell out quickly these releases are now mailing list exclusive.
