Serenvida by Manisha Harkins
Intuitive Colour, Surface Design & Illustration
Seren = star Vida = life
With a strong instinct for colour, pattern and commercial art, I am a trained textile designer and all-round creative soul with a diverse background in the design industry (textile/surface design, design journalism, prop styling) coupled with a love of holistic practices. I have exhibited at art/design and lifestyle shows e.g. New Designers, London 2014, The Cardiff Festival of Wellbeing 2017, as well as art exhibitions in Cardiff.
I'm most inspired by nature, colour and interesting figures too. I love to create thoughtful surface patterns, illustrations and artwork for products, books and all manner of home furnishings!
I formed Serenvida to tailor my colour/art/design ideas to uplift, calm, energise or restore. Colour and art are potent energies and by tapping into their potential, together we can create an outcome that fulfils both your energetic and design desires. Reach out to me for bespoke surface pattern, illustrations, and colour remedies suited to your specific desires: happily bridging the gap between design and intuition in the process. At Serenvida studio, I have always referred to this as Colour Alchemy! I also come armed with a toolkit of energy practices honed over more than 20 years, including meditation, reiki (master practitioner), colour essential oils (chromotherapy oils) and more.
"Colour provokes a psychic vibration.
Colour hides a power still unknown but real,
which acts on every part of the human body"
- Wassily Kandinsky
