Tennessee Charpentier

Tennessee Charpentier is the creative driving force behind Visionary Art by Messiah. Born and raised in Amiens France, Tennessee was encouraged from a young age to explore her natural creative talent. This led her to gaining entry into the prestigious Parisian School ESAG Penninghen where she excelled, attaining her Master's Degree in Graphic Design. At the completion of her training Tennessee was offered an opportunity to enter the Parisian fashion scene as an art director. After exploring the potential of a professional career on the path well-travelled, Tennessee decided to take a leap of faith, and explore the diversity of Australia, NZ and the USA - discovering arts and culture festivals such as Burning Man and the lifestyle these events teach. She now calls Melbourne her home, and through the local music and arts scene, has become inspired to combine formal graphic design with visionary art, surrealism and symbolism to form her unique style. Visions and ideas arise from her subconscious, communicating lessons to be applied to life - themes of inner strength and courage are expressed on canvas to motivate everyone to embrace their life path and strive to self-actualise.
