![Eloise Short is pictured sitting in front of a window. There are several houseplants to her left. Eloise has her light brown hair tied back and is wearing a white short sleeved boat neck shirt with a red houndstooth pattern at the top followed by lines of red horses that increase in scale as they reach the bottom of the shirt.](https://nextstateprint.com/wp-content/uploads/Profile-eloise-short-360x360.jpg)
I was obsessed with painting and drawing from a very early age and only ever wanted to be an artist when I grew up. After finishing a Fine Art degree, I decided I needed a more practical application of those skills and discovered the wonderful world of Textile Design. I’ve now been working as a Textile Designer and Illustrator for more than a decade and still love it. I work from a home studio in the Blue Mountains, I’m inspired by Australian flora and fauna. All my designs start with a painting or drawing and are then converted to a digital file to create repeats and colour variations.
I hope you find something you love in my collection.
