Today I’m excited to share an interview with nomadic designer and muralist Blaise Danio. We talk all about her creative process, the inspiration for her work, creating the mental space necessary to make good work and how she gets over creative blocks. We also talk about a lot about divine guidance, how she taps into that inner knowing to make important decisions in her life and her manifestation process and which is how she’s managed to create her dream life as an artist.
Blaise Danio Bio
Blaise Danio is a nomadic, multidisciplinary designer, working primarily on the US West Coast. Her artwork and public murals activate the sensory memory of nostalgia. Using abstract landscapes and bright, soothing colors her work transports the viewer to a space of requiem.
As a designer Blaise collaborates with tech companies, art institutions and retailers to create custom textiles, fine art and large scale murals. Driven by a passion for travel, fashion, interior design and high quality, sustainable materials she set about creating a brand and art career with a unique combination of all her passions.
After receiving her education from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts and Tufts University she relocated to New York to pursue her career in product and public design.
She has spent years working in the arts in New York City, facilitating behind-the-scenes art installation with MOMA PS1, Sotheby’s, The Public Theater, and prop styling for Real Simple magazine. She has studied under internationally acclaimed artist, Michele Oka Doner.
Blaise works with high-profile clients on custom designs and public mural work. Her designs are carried in over 100 retail stores internationally. She is currently a spotlight artist with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation and work is frequently featured on Design Milk as well as in the New York Times Wirecutter edition.
