Vanessa Ortiz Reyes is multimedia artist born and based in San Diego, CA. Her explorations in nature influence her passion for visual arts and hand crafted jewelry works.

Combine&Create Studio launched in 2018 in Barrio Logan the arts and cultural district of San Diego. Her photographic works both digital/film or alternative photography processes capture fleeting moments of nature. Documenting the way in which people can live sustainably with the planet. Her cyanotype works began in 2014 during her years at Cornish College of the Arts in Seattle Washington where she received her Bachelors in Fine Art & Photography minoring in environmental sciences. The cyanotypes prints are more focused on the impermanence of the natural world and how we are apart of nature.

Her hand forged jewelry collections are made with pure metal alloys and set with ethically sourced natural gemstones. The art of Craft has been a vital component of Mexican culture and economic history, and she strives to continue that artisan lineage. You can find the collections in studio, online, and gift shops.
