Vanesa Erjavec is a visual artist from Slovenia with a degree in Art History and English Language and Literature. Her work encompasses traditional art and digital illustration, as well as graphic and web design. She explores different art styles, ranging from semi-realism to illustrative dark fantasy. The emphasis is on the duality of human nature; the child-like curiosity and imagination vs. the depth of emotion and expression. Her artistic subjects range from cute cats in a variety of situations, to goddesses in various mythologies, with which she explores the feminist emphasis in art history.

She works as the art editor for Tint Journal, an online literary magazine dedicated to creative writing in English as a non-native language. Last year, she illustrated their anthology Tinted Trails. Her other projects include illustrations and design for Kosmatinke, a collection of children’s poems written by Dolores Hunsky, and book cover for the poetry collection Odmevi v Solzah by Ian Tretjak.

As a co-founder of the Creative Writing Center organization in Maribor, she organizes and participates in various events and workshops in creative writing and visual arts.
