Hi, it's nice to meet you!
I’m Danielle Wade — artist, storyteller, and educator. I create watercolor paintings, illustrate children’s books, sell prints, and teach watercolor classes.
By day, a Senior User Experience Designer.
By evening, the luckiest mom of two beautiful children.
By night, an aspiring artist
My work is about finding joy in the process, and I often call this my life long hobby. It is not about being the best, it's about loving what you do, and the rest will follow. I hope when you look at my work you find a feeling of home, happiness, and simplicity.
Enjoy.
Children’s Books
My children’s books combine playful imagery with gentle, meaningful stories designed to spark curiosity and kindness. Each book is crafted to support early literacy and emotional growth, with engaging characters, rhythmic language, and richly layered illustrations that invite repeated reading.
Watercolor Commissions
I accept commissions for original artwork tailored to your space and story. Commissions range from custom portraits and nursery pieces.
Art Prints
High-quality prints make my original work accessible for everyday living. Available in a variety of sizes and finishes. Prints are ideal for decorating homes, gifting to loved ones, or creating a cohesive gallery wall.
Community & Collaboration
Community is at the heart of what I do. I partner with local shops to host watercolor workshops that encourage creativity and inclusion. I’m always open to new collaborations that expand who gets to access art and storytelling.
