Shivani Danave (she/her)

Hello, I am Shivani! Born and raised in India, I have an undergraduate degree in Graphic Design. After working with creative agencies on branding and advertising campaigns, I realised my passion for illustrating and storytelling.

The MA helped me develop a drawing practice based on observation and experimentation. I enjoyed creating pictures without overthinking using printmaking. Overall, stories of warmth and whimsy filled me with joy.

I am a huge fan of all things cosy and giant cups of morning coffee. Long walks, open spaces and sitting by the river help me recharge and ready to brew new projects!
