Hello!

My name is Vanessa.. but you guys know me as Lionessa Art.

What's up beautiful people?? Just wanted to dedicate a page to introduce myself! My name is Vanessa Cruz, born and raised in Miami, Florida from two Puerto Rican parents (well my mom is a diaspora rican like me but born in Jersey). My father was born and raised in Isabela, Puerto Rico. I grew up to my mom blasting old school salsa on saturday mornings to clean and my father with his truck speakers to the max so everyone could hear him listening to raggaeton. My father was always an artist and I learned in high school I loved to draw too. I got into drawing my favorite things (disney, marvel, etc) and little by little starting adding my own twists based on my Puerto Rican heritage. If you're reading this I'd say I've gotten pretty good at it. Combing the love for pop culture and the beautiful isla del encanto has not only given me the opportunity to highlight my culture but join a community of those who love it as well. So if you managed to read this entire page I just wanted to say I am eternally grateful for your support. ❤️🇵🇷
