Ellie started East End Press in 2015 , She studied Illustration at the Glasgow School of Art, 'In the third year of my degree, I discovered I loved screen printing so joined Glasgow Print Studio and developed my love and knowledge of printing. I started drawing and screen printing products, and selling them at markets and shops, and slowly are the business from there. Originally everything I sold was printed and made by me! 

I have always loved traditional folk art…old Native American quilts, Eastern European paper cuts, Indian block printing; and so the designs and processes of these crafts have always inspired me. I also love Matisse’s line drawings.

 

WE work with printers and crafts people all over the world. All products sold by East End Press are hand printed, hand painted or hand dyed- skilled human hands made these products individually with craftsmanship and care.
