"We are the proud owners of six of Vanessa Piche’s original paintings. The first two were purchased at two different Wickford (Rhode Island) Art Festivals and the next three were commissions. What initially attracted us to Vanessa’s paintings is her uncanny ability to capture color, light and composition. Her skies, with powerful clouds, create an inviting balance whether it is combined with water, people, buildings, or boats. Two of our commissioned paintings are of our grandsons; one with them walking down dock with crabbing gear and the other of them in waist deep water digging quahogs.  She nailed both of them so well. The third commission is of the Narragansett coast line with the perspective from Narragansett Bay.  Our most recent painting we purchased from Vanessa was one of her earlier renderings of the RI coastline depicting “Beavertail (Jamestown, RI) Looking North,” capturing its rocky coast line, waves and its powerful ability to wreak havoc on mariners venturing too close.  Vanessa is clearly one of our favorite artists and her work is displayed prominently throughout our home. Her versatility has served her well."

"I asked Vanessa to capture our favorite beach near our home, complete with the beach roses along the path and our little dog running across the sand. She brought it to life more beautifully than we imagined. The colors are stunning and tie perfectly into our room, and she even helped us frame it to match a cherished painting from my late mother-in-law. The whole experience felt personal and thoughtful, and the finished painting is something we’ll treasure forever."

"Vanessa created a beach scene for my pied-à-terre that was absolutely bursting with color and life. I wanted something playful, vibrant, and true to the spirit of a nude beach, and she captured the essence perfectly. The painting was exactly what I had envisioned—only better. It sets the tone for the entire space and feels both sophisticated and full of joy. I couldn’t be happier with the result."

"We commissioned Vanessa to paint the view at our wedding venue. We couldn’t have been happier with the end result- every day we pass by this piece and are reminded of our wedding day. It’s one of our favorite piece of art in our home.

About the Del's Lemonade Truck- This piece brings our family so much joy because of its nostalgic nature. It emulates summer time in New England and we couldn’t love it more!"

"Vanessa, it's perfect! Jim will absolutely love it!!! It is just so fabulous! It's his favorite spot and you captured it at such a beautiful time of day! Thank you so very, very much!!!"
