Victoria’s lifelong passion for art took root at an early age, gently nurtured by the encouragement of her grandmother, Helen Raitt, who first inspired her to explore her creative voice. This early spark blossomed into formal study during her college years in Cheshire, England, where she immersed herself in painting and pottery at the Madeley College of Education at Keele University. Beyond her identity as a creator, Victoria’s journey is defined by a profound dedication to uplifting others. Earning her credentials as a teacher with a specialty in art, she has always found immense joy in guiding people to discover their own expressive abilities. This deep-seated empathy naturally extended into her professional life as a trained Registered Nurse, beautifully intertwining her creative spirit with a career built on compassionate, hands-on care.

Today, Victoria is an active and celebrated presence in the California art community, serving as a proud member of the La Jolla Art Association. Her vibrant pieces have been featured in a variety of local spaces, including the La Jolla Community Center, the Scripps Clinic in Carmel Valley, and across galleries in Del Mar, Carlsbad, Encinitas, and the Sacramento Fe Gallery. In a reflection of her healing background, she once designed a thoughtful exhibition for the Rehabilitation Office in Sacramento that included braille descriptions, ensuring her work was inclusive and accessible to all. Ultimately, Victoria’s art is an experience in pure joy; her pieces are fun, effortlessly happy, and purposefully created to lift the spirits of everyone who encounters them.
