Who is Vanessa Groch?
I am a Freelance Illustrator, Painter and occasional Fashion Designer. Born in Germany, I was raised in Bavaria, but my roots lie in Romania and so I feel at home in Transylvania aswell.
I have been working as a freelancer since 2020 and have since then carried out several projects for public clients and private individuals. I also opened my own fashion label VANGROCH and have already worked on successful collaborations and design assignments in the field of fashion design.
2022 I started my journey as dual student in media design at the IU University. I first worked at Rödl & Partner in the business development team and switched to NewMedia AV in January 2023. There, I am part of the marketing team and involved in all kinds of exciting projects.
In my spare time, I mainly pursue my hobby of drawing and painting and have been working on my first acrylic portrait exhibition since 2022. I am also a pationate gamer and movie enthusiast, as I draw a lot of inspiration form these sources. I also take time to try out as many new art mediums as possible, from graffiti over tattooing to photography.
