TEXTILE DESIGN IS A GROWING PASSION OF MINE WHICH BEGAN DURING A TRIP TO NEPAL IN 2019 WHERE I LEARNED ABOUT HAND PRINTING TECHNIQUES WHILE DEVELOPING PRODUCT AND PRINT DESIGNS FOR A FAIR-TRADE ORGANIZATION. THIS INTEREST EXPANDED THROUGH MY PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE IN THE INTERIOR DESIGN INDUSTRY. SINCE THEN I HAVE ENJOYED CONCEPTUALIZING NEW SURFACE DESIGNS WITH INTERIOR APPLICATIONS IN MIND. I WOULD LOVE TO LEARN MORE ABOUT TRANSLATING MY ARTWORK INTO TEXTILE PRODUCTS SUCH AS WALLCOVERING, FABRIC, AND RUGS.
