I am Natalie Newman, I´m a 28 year old artist, illustrator and graphic designer living in Vienna.

While studying graphic design, I created the Vanillery Garden as my place for creative outlet. After trying lots of different things like co-directing a theatre, doing porcelain design and creating books, it came to me that I should bring together all the facets that I have developed along the way: Art, my love for animals, my spiritual background and my longing to heal myself and others in the world.

Today I create paintings that have the purpose to bring love and peace to the place they live in. My painting process is very intimate. I set up sacred space and I make sure that I create with the intention to bring a piece of art into being, that will be a reminder of presence, of the grace and generosity of life. The purpose of my art is to transform the room and all the living beings in it, so that everyone can relax, heal and raise their vibrations for the benefits of all.
