Hi, I’m Ayesha (pronounced i-sha)
Ever since I was young, I've had a love for arts and crafts. This is mainly because I saw how great my older sister was at it, and all of you with amazing older siblings can relate when I say we just wanted to be exactly like them.
Pretty soon I found myself drawing, crafting, cutting, colouring and painting anything I could, and found that throughout the years, art has always travelled with me. Whether it’s in the form of a personalised meme, or a handmade gift, I love the feeling of bringing to life something that you imagined in your mind - it can feel like magic.
A couple of years ago I opened up a card store on Etsy. After listing a very ironic cat-inspired Donald Trump card, I saw that some people liked the designs. Since then I've had over 5,500 sales, and have had some amazing opportunities to create bespoke art for various people and companies. Now i’m here.
I truly love what I do, and have taught myself everything from design, print and packaging to bring PurryGood where it is today. I am grateful for all the inspiration, advice and support I receive from the brilliant individuals around me to keep chasing my dreams, and to keep growing and to be better. Oh and thank you to my sisters, forever.
My current goal in life is to have my own art cafe one day, where people can come in, grab a hot drink, and draw or create greeting cards. If that changes then I’ll let you know.
Thanks for stopping by.
