I've always found meaning in creating, from painting as a child to a 17-year career in design today. My higher studies were in IT, but the pull toward creative work never left, and design, alongside photography, is where I eventually landed for good.

I specialise in brand identity, with 17 years of experience across startups and global names like HSBC, print and digital projects. That experience includes leading content strategy and full social media management for established retail and jewellery brands like Sifani, where I also shot the social media content myself and art-directed campaign shoots for brands like Fior-Drissage. All of this shaped how I think about identity across every touchpoint, not just the logo.

Beyond client work, I'm genuinely drawn to art and photography, pursuits that keep my creative eye sharp and continually feed back into my design work.

If you have a project in mind, particularly one where craftsmanship and a considered process matter, explore my work and get in touch. I'd love to hear about it.

ABOUT ME

Dona Nirasha Kannangara

Art Director | Graphic Designer

Few of the brands I have worked with:

ART

When it comes to art, it's the primary medium through which I express myself. My preferred mediums are watercolor and ink pens. Most of my watercolor work consists of landscape paintings. Over the years, I've developed a deep appreciation for the versatility of ink as a medium and enjoy experimenting with various techniques, including stippling and hatching. I also have a great admiration for illustrations and aspire to explore this area further in the future.

PHOTOGRAPHY

In addition to commercial photography, I have a keen eye for capturing diverse subjects like portraits, close-up macros, wildlife, and expansive landscapes. I particularly enjoy showcasing my work in monochrome as it simplifies narratives and allows for compelling storytelling through my photographs. I believe that monochrome enhances the emotional impact of my images, drawing viewers into the essence of the subject.
