Dianna is an artist, author, and actor, with experience of the independent and micro-publishing book industry in the areas of creative writing, website and book cover design, page formatting and typesetting, editing and proofreading, and publishing processes in general. She also has some experience in theatre production, and growing experience in TV and film. In the past, she has run a holistic health and well being business in South Hampshire, UK, and being an avid tarot lover, too, is well versed in working with themes of a mystical and spiritual nature in both writing and art. In 2024, she is focusing on both acting and illustration as career paths, and delving into writing as and when.
Dianna is Bahian (Brazilian) and Macanese (Portuguese) by birth, and has had the inspirational joy of growing up multiculturally. In her childhood, it seemed she was surrounded by angels, incense, monks, all kinds of gods, food markets, typhoons, a bustling family life, and the beach and sea. Moving to England at the age of 8, she fell in love with Arthurian myths and legends and fairy lore. She loves storms, the stars, the sun's rays creating a kaleidoscope of colours through her eyelashes, the sound the wind makes through leaves, the smell of everything after it rains, and she is still very much invigorated by a windy British day.
All of the above feeds her creativity and intuitive urges - she's been sketching for fun and peace since six years old, and writing stories since she was eight. Storytelling and dreaming is what she does to bring her visions forward. Her drive has always been to inspire raw emotion in others; to trigger deep feelings about life and encourage a breaking of conditioned boundaries for positive evolution. |
About the logoMeet The Unimpressed Fairy. She's the part of me that is forever critical of my creations and likes to voice it. I've learnt to accept her and love her, after all, she probably heard the same growing up from someone else and it's the only way she knows how to encourage me to keep going and do better. I know not to take her words to heart and I figured if I let her have her say by putting her on the back of all my cards and notebooks, and on the bottom of my website, she'll feel she's being listened to and perhaps, as a result, be a little less critical, and simply enjoy art for what it is: a way to express every facet of our imperfect selves through colour, shapes, and stories, all of which can also be imperfect.
