Without Dharma there would be No Halfpint Design Studio. I began my career in the late 1980's , always artistic and creative..when .I started dyeing and painting on t shirts for 2 sons and their friends, with rit dye and acrylic paint. In 1988 I discovered Dharma. Soon after I was selling Tiedye to the neighborhood High School kids and painted shirts to the mom's of toddlers. I stated doing art shows and festivals, a way of living was born. I travel 6-7 months out of the year, doing shows. I sell online throughout the year. I use the fiber reative dyes, soda ash, synthropal and Jaquard fabric paint, and Would be lost without the versatex fixative. I also dye and paint the clothing Dharma sells. Especially the childrens clothing. People love the colors and I have perfected the art of pastel dyeing.
