About Nada

Artist, teacher and colour enthusiast, Nada has been creating for as long as she can remember. Growing up in New Zealand's South Island, she spent her days exploring beaches, bush tracks and gardens, developing a lifelong love of nature and the ever-changing colours that continue to inspire her work today.

After graduating university, Nada has spent more than 20 years teaching across New Zealand, the UK, Australia and Switzerland. Along the way, she discovered the powerful connection between creativity and wellbeing, a belief that continues to shape both her teaching and artistic practice.

Now based in Melbourne with her husband Kristof and son Raphi, Nada paints from her home studio, creating vibrant acrylic artworks inspired by nature, joy and the beauty of everyday moments.

Her work is all about bringing curiosity, colour, energy and happiness into a space, creating pieces that lift moods, spark imagination and feed the soul.

Because life's too short for beige walls and boring art.
