Welcome,
My name is Daniella. I am a mixed media artist and designer, and most of all a maker. I live in Whanganui and spend most of my time in a small art studio.

My professional art journey started in 1997. I was working as a costume and prop maker artist in central Europe. I produced several successful entries for World of WearableArts between 2010-2020. If you are interested you may find some of my work on the internet. Last year I started to learn about horticulture and floristry which opened the door for me into a large and fascinating world. I guess, I needed some renewal and some outdoor time as I spent most of my time indoors in the last 25 years.
Garden and Stitchery is a synthesis of my past and presence.
I like to work with natural fibres, and paint. I handprint my fabrics and embellish them with hand stitching and embroideries, to make them unique and non-commercial. Individuality, quality and craftmanship is really important for me. I produce small bags, planters, gardening aprons, home décor and mixed media art to make your life and environment more beautiful.
