Art to Uplift and Inspire

Art and Illustration by Dirkie Nell

Welcome to Mood Forest. Here I share my love for color and the creative process. Inspired by everyday small delights and hidden moments

Just for you

  • I create my original pieces in collections, each featuring a theme or color close to my heart. View my past collections HERE, or head over to the SHOP to see what pieces are available for purchase.

  • I offer high-quality fine art prints of art that I create digitally (like illustrations) and selected prints of my original artwork. Fine art prints are a lovely way to bring beautiful original creations into your home but at a lower cost of an original painting.
