With support from Ochoco-Law East Dunbartonshire, Shweta Mistry now sells her ethically handmade cushions and prints online at Etsy with a view to supplying retailers in future.
Shweta’s timeless products are created using mineral, earth and alchemical pigments – materials all found in traditional Indian techniques rooted in the 11th Century B.C.

Ochoco-Law allowed me to understand Social Media effectively for my business.

Shweta said: “I graduated with a Master of Research in Creative Practices from Glasgow School of Art where I conducted extensive research into masters of Indian painting and the techniques they used. I began experimenting by printing my original art onto luxury fabrics and I was so pleased with the results that I decided to focus on this area. Now, I use my art to create textiles for home décor, high end interior design and boutique hotels.
“Ochoco-Law’s practical advice on business development and how to market my business was extremely helpful. I was also signposted to Scottish Enterprise via my Ochoco-Law adviser in order to receive specialist support.
