About Me

Hi my name is Laura Day. I am a Screen-Printer and Creativity Coach based in Melbourne, Victoria. I have a combined 9 years of study in both Fine Art and Design. During my years of study I have developed a true passion for textiles, print and pattern.

I have been using hand-cut stencils in my own art practice for over 7 years now - and upon discovering this method I have been hooked ever since. I adore the pop art movement and learning about the late great Andy Warhol led me onto further study in Screen-Printing.

I have been a Screen-Printer since 2007 and I have worked for Brisbane based Eco Textile Design label Thea and Sami. I can-not express how valuable work placement / industry experience is for students during their tertiary studies. While working for Thea I learnt a great deal of practical hands on skills to further my career as an artist and designer.

The economic crisis of 2009 affected my abilities to land a job as a junior graphic designer after graduation from my Bachelor of Design. I knew that after completion of all of my study that I had alot of skills to offer the world, but no one was giving me a chance. It was only until reading the book: “Kick Start Your Dream Business” by Romanus Wolter that it became clear to me that I can actually run a business of my very own. Reading this book has dramatically changed my outlook on life and led me to follow my dreams.
