Valentina Harper is a Nashville-based visual artist who transitioned from a fifteen-year career in graphic design to a full-time studio practice in 2009. Originally from Venezuela, she brings a meticulous, technical eye to her work, utilizing Rapidograph pens and vibrant paints to build complex, rhythmic compositions. Her practice is defined by a freehand approach to pattern-making, resulting in highly detailed depictions of the natural world. Harper’s work is characterized by a whimsical sensibility that has led to significant recognition, including features as a "Face of Nashville" and exhibitions at the Customs House Museum & Cultural Center. Beyond her gallery pieces, she is the author of the best-selling Creative Coloring book series and has brought her signature aesthetic to collaborations with brands such as Hallmark, Sakroots, and Benartex Fabrics.

Visual voice

Harper’s aesthetic centers on hand-drawn, freehand patterns that weave together to form complex mandalas and organic subjects. Her work balances the precision of technical pen-and-ink lines with a saturated, lively color palette to depict animals and nature.
