Showcase at a glance🪴

Had such a fun time designing everything for this and was incredible seeing it all come to life. Thank you so much to my minions (friends & family) that helped me get this together (stuck pieces of paper together for 3 hours)😉! Was a wonderful way to end off what has been an amazing degree which I am so grateful to have been able to do✨🫶

See the BTS in my story highlights☺️

Meet my font - Tan Dan ✨

I’m really looking forward to getting more into font making. It’s such a fun and rewarding process to be able to customize a font to a specific project so that everything fits together perfectly!

I think this might be my favourite product photo ever! 🩵 thank you to the model for getting covered in paint🙈 the contrast between the dark background and the shine from the thick foil packaging is so crisp. Can’t wait to get back into the photography studio soon!

P.S. @lukasfarben are my absolute favourite acrylic paints - amazing pigmentation and stunning colours!!

Here’s the final result of my latest sketchbook spread! 🌿✨

After sharing the process in my recent reel, so many of you asked to see the finished piece—so here it is, complete with a few added highlights using @harvestmoonwatercolours ! 🎨 I had a lot of fun experimenting with these beautiful pigments to bring some extra life into the details. 💛

Swipe through to see the full spread and let me know what you think in the comments! 💬 And if you haven’t seen the process yet, go check out the reel for a behind-the-scenes look at how it all came together! 🎥

Hello October! 🌸✨

This illustration is a little nod to the beauty and change that comes with a new month. The vibrant flowers and soft hues represent the fresh energy we all need as we step into this season. Here’s to embracing growth, creativity, and those small yet meaningful moments. 🍂🌿

Let me know which of the colour schemes is your fave🥰😍

Sketchbook Sundays🎨

One of the best things I’ve learned this year is that not all art must be perfect. Sometimes it is purely a form of expression and an outlet of the stresses from the week. So with that in mind I am going to start sharing with you some of my Sunday Sketchbook Sessions☺️

I have come to love these messy (and sometimes not so pretty) sketchbooks spreads. I adore the way colours mesh into one another and patterns twirl around the page.✨ It’s a form of therapy for me that really helps my creativity flow throughout the week ahead.

I hope that this inspires you to create for the sake of creating rather than for the sake of perfection 🤍

Enjoy the process,
Dani🎨

My design mantra ✨

Rooted in creativity, my goal is to help other people’s dreams flourish. 🌿 Just like a garden, it’s all about nurturing, watering, and watching those ideas bloom. Let’s grow something beautiful together! 💚
