Welcome to my new website!

I am really excited to welcome you to my new website for Michelle Witts Designs.

Drawing has been a passion of mine since I was a child but I didn’t really get to use my art until later in life. At the age of 47 I attended an Art Access Course at Exeter College which enabled me to go to the London Metropolitan University to study textile design. It was a great experience as we studied knit, stitch, weave and printing for the first year and I then continued with printing, specialising in screen printing. My eldest daughter also graduated at this time in textile design and we set up a design company together from 2014 to 2022 creating a range of kitchenware and household goods - which was very successful.

Now that I am based in East Devon, I have set up my own company to continue with the craft that I love. My style has evolved from being inspired by a wide range of painting, printmaking and illustration.  Having used many different mediums over the years, I find watercolour and ink to be the most exciting because of their fluidity, unpredictability, and the way they interact on paper. I find that watercolour creates beautiful, organic blends, while ink adds striking contract and definition. My inspiration comes from the rich biodiversity of South West England - its lush woodlands, coastal landscapes and diverse wildlife offer endless possibilities.

My website features a range of high quality products designed for a modern country home. Combining timeless charm with contemporary design, my collections enhance nature-inspired prints carefully curated to bring warmth, style and enjoyment to every home. New designs and products will be coming out shortly, in the Spring.
