Hi, welcome to Nisha Designs.
Nisha Designs is the design studio of artist and textile designer, Nisha. This is where you can explore my artwork – each painting representing a magickal journey imagined spiritually and reflected physically with every brush stroke – buy paintings, and request commissions.
Nisha Designs is also home to my textiles business. I have 18+ years of experience working in the textile industry for Abercrombie Mills (Cone Jacquard Mill), Opuzen, Steven Harsey Textiles, Koni Hospitality, Welspun, Venus Group.
We provide custom and commissioned art, custom textile designs for hospitality and home textiles, as well as Art Direction services.
Whether its working with luxurious natural fibers – such as wools, cottons and organic linens – to designing your next bedding collection; to capturing the essence of a moment in nature through intricate brushstrokes on a canvas; or gathering nature’s little treasures – like stones, shells, leaves and feathers – to support me creatively in producing mood boards for art direction – Nisha Designs honors Mother Earth in all that we do, and creates with the utmost care and respect for the planet and her resources.
Read the energy as a mage, Blast the enemy, smudge with sage, Limitless possibilities, get out of the cage, Being one, we’re on the same page, Express yourself, take to the stage, Wisdom applied, that’s your wage, Up the ante, be your own gauge, Countless years, immortality has no age. Poem: An Adage — Medeacine

The druids respected dragons as forces of nature, the guardians of mother earth and all things sacred, the protectors of nature and all living things. The dragon holds the powerful Celtic symbol of protection and power. These magical beings represented all that the universe has to offer.
Dragon soul energy was worshiped and used for the greater good. At special celebrations of the turning seasons of the year, to harvest the right crops, as a true guardian for all they held sacred.
The earth soul dragon has a symbolism of nature and all things connected to our Mother Earth. The earth soul dragon asks us to connect with nature in all of its beauty. The true wealth is not money but the beauty of our land and its magick, it’s sources and resources.
