TESTIMONIALS

“welcome to mia’s secret garden— detailed graphite and color drawings of nature, flowers and fantasy take over leaving the rest of the world behind. It’s a breath of fresh air when you feel transported with her lightness of being.” – traffic creative management.

“mia combines fashion and fantasy to perfection in delicate pencil and watercolor drawings, where people, animals and plants cohabit in chaotic beauty.” – amelia’s magazine.

“for première vision accessories, overgaard has elaborated her own graphic and poetic universe to create an artistic interpretation of the season, in particular its prominent hybrid and psychedelic vegetation theme.
she converges the animal world and plant worlds in a strange, magical atmosphere.
her phantasmagorical and surrealistic images, which appear lifted from a dream, will add a lively new dimension to première vision accessories.” – elsa may, premiere vision paris.
