Brush Strokes of Beauty and Wonder

“If you truly love nature, you will find beauty everywhere.”

—Vincent VanGogh

A woman in a black dress stands indoors next to an easel with a colorful painting of a heron on it, in front of a fireplace. Behind her, there are two paintings of elephants on the mantle and shelves with framed photos and decorative items in a cozy living room.

What I do

I create joyful, nature-inspired art. Each of my paintings is a tribute to the beauty and wonder of the natural world. With layered textures, vibrant hues, and a process that evolves from abstraction to realism, I create artwork meant to bring peace, harmony, and natural beauty into your space.

Why I do it

I went through a series of painful times and difficult challenges in my life, ultimately leading to a process of healing and rediscovery.The twin forces of nature and art restored me by rekindling joy and a sense of purpose. By celebrating the beauty and wonder of the natural world that surrounds us, my art is created to be an emotional experience as well as a visual one, bringing, joy, peace, and healing to all who view it.

Prints

Would you like a one of a kind piece, created uniquely for you?

Ordering a personalized painting can offer a much deeper and more meaningful connection to artwork and the artist, and can be layered with symbolism specifically meaningful to you. Although I gravitate towards nature-themed paintings, I can paint anything, including pet portraits, human portraits, cityscapes and still lives. So if there’s something special that you’d like painted for yourself, a friend, or family member, contact me. Please be aware that for the best outcome, it helps to have an open mind, as each painting is my interpretation and expression of a subject, rather than a photorealistic imitation.

Commissions

What collectors are saying:

I had the privilege of commissioning an oil painting from artist Valerie Vullo, and the result far exceeded my expectations. Executed in her signature abstract realism style, the piece portrays my late golden retriever alongside my friend’s—both cherished companions who are no longer with us. Working from a single photograph, Valerie demonstrated extraordinary sensitivity and technical skill, capturing not only the physical likenesses of the dogs but also the emotional resonance of the moment. The painting evokes a profound sense of presence and memory, beautifully translating the deep affection and connection we felt into a timeless visual tribute. The piece was given as a gift to my friend, who was equally and deeply moved. Her emotional response was a testament to the power of Valerie’s work and her ability to honor memory through art. Valerie’s ability to interpret sentiment through form and texture is truly remarkable. This artwork is far more than a representation—it is a celebration of life, love, and remembrance. I am deeply grateful for her talent and the care she brought to this commission.

We love having Valerie's gorgeous paintings in our home. Her egret is filled with touches of natural light, and her fishing heron is reflected beautifully in the water--such peaceful depictions of wildlife in nature. I pause by the paintings for a few moments every time I walk by, to fill with calm and happiness.

I was extremely excited to be able to obtain Valerie’s work. Her birds are very lifelike and bring sunshine and happiness to the room. I am very pleased with the quality of her work and know that it will hold a great place in my home for years to come.

It was a pleasure purchasing art from Valerie Vullo, and I definitely plan to do so again! I purchased a painting as a gift for my mother’s 85th birthday, to remind her of my father who passed away. When the painting arrived, it was even more beautiful in person than in the photo. Valerie’s brushstrokes really brought the bird to life. My mother absolutely loved the painting and was nearly moved to tears. I couldn’t have given her a more meaningful gift. Valerie’s deep and authentic connection to nature shines through in her paintings, and her style is so unique and beautiful that now I want a painting for myself! I wouldn’t think twice about asking her to develop another work of art for my family and friends as a gift for their special occasion. I highly recommend Valerie Vullo Fine Art.
