monday muse :: daniella manini artist

monday muse / daniella manini

freedom-lancer artist + big kid at heart + mama bird to noah 

our mama muse crush for the month of may award goes to daniella manini!

daniella is a peruvian-born soCal based graphic artist. in her twenty years in the industry, she has worked for kickass surf and lifestyle brands across the globe. we met our muse daniella via our california collection of creative insty folk and were immediately swooning over her vintage 70’s font styling, quirky style and simplistic line graphics drawn from the nature.

her fun font prints and pictures fall perfectly in picture puzzle place with our kawaiian folk vibes and upon our first conversation we were delighting over our mutual love for that washed-out vintage look and feel and inherent love for all things oceanic.

thus, we are beyond stoked to present to y’all our first capsule collection with this talented mama and offer a little insight into this whimsical world in which she inhabits.

yes, sea.
