PAINTDEE

I have a range of homeware, which I design and make in Kent.

My products are a unique style, blended with handcrafted artwork to create vibrant and delightful prints. I use a combination of soft subtle colours and marrying them with fluorescent tones. I create my patterns and prints from my paintings, collages and drawings, which give my designs a strong organic feel to it. The development of my art, transferred to digital prints, are inspired by magic eye patterns, optical illusions and blot test.

I produce digital prints for ceramic and glass tableware, silk, satin and cotton finish cushions, in different sizes, shapes and sizes (all available in the collection of cushion print designs). All my products are completely covered with my own designs.

I launched these products in the summer of 2012: selling my products in Kent and Essex in galleries, specialist teashops. I also sell my products at craft and designers/ makers markets, namely: Covent Garden Apple Market, “We Make London” - Camden Lock Market and Spitafields Designers Makers Market. My business is supported by the Prince’s Trust.

I have an art and sculpture background, and graduated from University College of Falmouth in Fashion Design, 2010. I specialized in print and surface design and my final collection led to me winning the Sorrel Foundation Award for Widening Participation in recognition of my style of pushing boundaries of fashion design through my prints and sculptural draping skills.

My products have an authentic feminine signature with a liberation of colour and design bringing a new sense of fashion to homeware.
