The Purple Tigress

Creative by Nature, Wild by Design

Hello,

My name is Samishka, a professional artist and graphic designer based in South Africa. Born in Durban in 1995, I have had a lifelong passion for art and creativity. I graduated in Visual Communication and Design from DUT in 2018.

For the past six years, I have worked as both an in-house designer and freelancer. My expertise includes catalogs, signage, advertising materials, online content, and marketing campaigns. I offer a broad range of design services tailored to diverse client needs. 

I also founded Untamed Artistry Handcrafted Art, specializing in hand-drawn pet portraits and unique art pieces. Each creation is crafted with love, detail, and a focus on both beauty and function. I am committed to producing work that inspires, captivates, and resonates emotionally. I look forward to bringing clients’ creative visions to life through my art and design.
