Testing the Waters

November 6, 2009

Right now I’m on a one-month trip through parts of Pakistan and India. This  is a reconnaissance trip of sorts – My sister and I are spending a bit of time in a lot of places to find out if and where the idea I have can work out on the sourcing side.  We are doing as much networking as we can, meeting with people who have some connection to the arts, to organizations supporting economic empowerment of the poor, and to the preservation of craft traditions. We’re also buying some sample goods for a bit of market testing in Seattle. In the weeks that follow I’ll let you know what we find out.

    • Hi Aziz,

      Thanks for the compliment! If you mean fine art, I just have a few miniature paintings right now. I have an interest in selling other artwork but not sure if I will be able to do it. If you are interested in functional art, I have some lovely handmade paper, hand block print kurtis, Multan pottery, and much more. If you like, I can send you some pictures of what interests you.
