I run a textile print design studio in east London. The studio is located in 2 railway arches in Bethnal Green. Personally I specialise in painting with dye on silk as well as digital photographic prints and digital textural and woven looking prints. Currently 5 designers are employed at the studio as well as about 20 interns at a time. We do a lot of t-shirt motifs, florals, chintz and paisleys, cut-outs and taped designs, conversationals and tropical designs and dot patterns and animal skin print. All prints we show are designed in my studio or by myself and my full time staff. There is no one working free lance or from home. This way the client can feel sure that the design is exclusive and has not been shown around elsewhere. I have 2 full time sales reps. Minimum 50% of the time at least one of them is in NYC showing prints and available for appointments. The sales reps also travel to Italy, LA and elsewhere in the US and are available for appointments in London. Myself and one of my designers also travel to Sweden and Paris to show the collection. I also show with agents in OZ, Japan, Korea and Turkey. We show at the tradeshow Indigo Premiere Vision in NYC 3 times a year and 2 times a year at Parc des Expositions Villepinte in France (PV).
